    Journal: Lett Appl Microbiol; 2001 Jan; 32(1):57-61. PubMed ID: 11169043.
    Abstract:
    AIMS: The seasonal trend and frequency of detection of Vibrionaceae in seawater samples and in molluscs collected in the Adriatic Sea was measured. METHODS AND RESULTS: Over a 2-year period, 726 bacterial strains were isolated, of which 46.9% belonged to the Vibrio genus, 29.8% to the Aeromonas genus and the remaining 23.3% was made up of the Pseudomonas, Flavobacterium, Pasteurella, Agrobacterium and Ochrobacterium genera. Many of the isolated strains were shown to produce toxins. CONCLUSION: The Vibrio genus, which was isolated more often than the other genera, was particularly prevalent in summer (54.4% of the total number of bacteria isolated during this season), while it was scarce in the winter months.
