Genomic mining of Vibrio parahaemolyticus highlights prevalence of antimicrobial resistance genes and new genetic markers associated with AHPND and tdh + /trh + genotypes.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Acute Hepatopancreatic Necrosis Disease (AHPND) causes significant mortality in shrimp aquaculture. The infection is primarily instigated by Vibrio parahaemolyticus (Vp) strains carrying a plasmid encoding the binary toxin PirAB. Yet, comprehension of supplementary virulence factors associated with this relatively recent disease remains limited. Furthermore, the same holds for gastroenteritis in...
