Genome sequences of pirAB + and pirAB − Vibrio campbellii strains isolated from shrimp ponds with mortality outbreaks carry type VI secretion systems

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: ABSTRACT Vibrio campbellii strains PH1401 and PH1409 were isolated from shrimp ponds with documented mortality outbreaks in the Philippines. PH1401 and PH1409 share identity with V. campbellii strain BoB-53. Whole-genome analysis reveals full-length pirAB binary toxin genes in PH1401 . Both strains carry three type VI secretion systems.
