Query: NC_015637:325561 Vibrio anguillarum 775 chromosome chromosome II, complete sequence Lineage: Vibrio anguillarum; Vibrio; Vibrionaceae; Vibrionales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria General Information: Listonella anguillarum, formerly Vibrio anguillarum is an opportunistic pathogen in economically important marine fish such as eel, flounder and salmon. This disease causes lesions on the skin and around the mouth and gills of the fish often progressing to a systemic infection causing death.

General Information: This strain was isolated from the Baltic Sea. A psychrophilic bacterium. This genus includes species that inhabit a wide range of environments and are capable of utilizing a wide variety of electron acceptors during anaerobic respiration including some insoluble metal oxides while using very few carbon sources such as lactate or acetate. This group of organisms have been studied extensively for their electron transport systems. This species is differentiated from other Shewanella spp. based on its ability to grow at 4 degrees C but not at 37, production of N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase, lack of chymotrypsin, and ability to use a variety of complex carbon compounds as carbon and energy sources.
