Abstract: | Abstract. Two hundred and five isolates of Vibrio bacteria were obtained from diseased black tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon Fabricius, cultured in Thailand during the period from February 1988 to January 1990. Ninety-six isolates of the bacteria were identified as Vibrio parahaemolyticus. The others included 74 isolates of V. vulnificus , 18 isolates of V. alginolyticus , six isolates of V. fluvialis and 11 isolates of Vibrio spp. Comparisons of some characteristics of the bacteria studied are given. |
