Abstract excerpt
Two bacterial strains were isolated from the hepatopancreas of a cultured shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) in Sinaloa, México. Their partial 16S rRNA gene sequences clustered within those of the genus Photobacterium, showing high similarity to the type strains of Photobacterium angustum and Photobacterium leiognathi, were 87.1% and 97.5%, respectively. Multilocus sequence analysis using eight housekeeping genes (ftsZ,...
