  • Title: Numerical taxonomy of Vibrionaceae isolated from cultured amberjack (Seriola dumerili) and surrounding water.
    Author: Alcaide E.
    Journal: Curr Microbiol; 2003 Mar; 46(3):184-9. PubMed ID: 12567241.
    Abstract:
    A numerical taxonomic study was performed on 148 isolates of Gram-negative, heterotrophic, facultative anaerobic bacteria isolated from amberjack (Seriola dumerili) and its surrounding culture water. The study included 30 type and reference strains belonging to genera Vibrio, Listonella, and Photobacterium. The strains were characterized by 109 morphological, biochemical, physiological, and nutritional tests. Cluster analysis of similarity matrices obtained with S(SM) and S(J) coefficients was carried out. UPGMA (unweighted pair group mathematical average) analysis defined 11 phena at S(SM) values > or = 86%. Nine phena were identified as Vibrio alginolyticus, V. fischeri, V. harveyi, V. carchariae, V. mediterranei, V. splendidus, V. furnissii, V. parahaemolyticus, and Photobacterium damselae subsp. damselae. The two latter comprised strains isolated from diseased fish.
