A new 5-plex PCR detection method for acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND)-causing Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains
2019-03-01
Abstract excerpt
Acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) is a shrimp disease caused by a unique strain of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (VpAHPND). This strain contains a highly pathogenic ~69 kbp (pVA1) plasmid encoding PirAvp and/or PirBvp deadly toxins. The pVA1-like plasmid is also reported to be found in Vibrio harveyi, Vibrio campbellii and Vibrio owensii. Therefore, prompt detection of the bacterial species carrying the Pi...
