Article Synopsis
- Vibrio fluvialis is a salt-loving bacterium found in coastal and estuarine waters, and strain 362.3 was isolated from a specific type of coral.
- Researchers sequenced the 362.3 strain's genome, revealing it consists of 4,607,294 base pairs with a G+C content of 50.2%.
- The analysis indicates that this strain has genes important for breaking down chitin, managing iron, coping with osmotic stress, and transporting materials across membranes.
Article Synopsis
- - MALDI-TOF MS is a quick and cost-effective method originally used for identifying clinical bacteria, but this study explores its application to marine bacteria from various sources like corals and fish.
- - The researchers analyzed 255 marine bacterial isolates, revealing 18 distinct groups that include well-known genera such as Vibrio and Bacillus.
- - Results showed that higher MALDI-TOF similarity scores correlate with high genetic similarity, indicating that this technique is effective in identifying Vibrio species.
We report here the novel species Halomonas coralii. The nearly complete genome of strain 362.1 consisted of 4.
