The aetiological agent of bleaching of the coral Oculina patagonica was characterized as a new Vibrio species on the basis of 16S rDNA sequence, DNA-DNA hybridization data and phenotypic properties, including the cellular fatty acid profile. Based on its 16S rDNA and DNA-DNA hybridization, the new Vibrio species is closely related to Vibrio mediterranei. The name Vibrio shiloi sp. nov. is proposed for the new coral-bleaching species, the type strain being AK1T (= ATCC BAA-91T = DSM 13774T).
基于16S rDNA序列、DNA-DNA杂交数据以及包括细胞脂肪酸谱在内的表型特征,将导致巴塔哥尼亚石珊瑚(Oculina patagonica)白化的病原体鉴定为一种新的弧菌属物种。根据其16S rDNA和DNA-DNA杂交结果,该新弧菌属物种与地中海弧菌密切相关。提议将这种新的导致珊瑚白化的物种命名为希氏弧菌(Vibrio shiloi sp. nov.),模式菌株为AK1T(= ATCC BAA-91T = DSM 13774T)。
