Experimental bacteriophage-mediated virulence in strains of Vibrio harveyi

Abstract: Vibriosis is a major disease problem in prawn aquaculture. Until now there has been no clear explanation why some strains of Vibrio are pathogenic, while others are not. This study demon-

“…Virulence factors encoded on bacteriophages may confer a wide range of traits to their hosts including toxin production and immunity to superinfection [18]. The involvement of bacteriophage in the virulence of V. harveyi has been documented previously by several authors [14,16,21]. One strain of V. campbellii (ACMM 642) originally reported as V. harveyi and one of the new species of V. owensii (47666-1) (previously V. harveyi 47666-1) have been shown to cause devastating disease in prawns in northern Australia [7].…”

A bacteriophage VHML from V. campbellii 642 was confirmed to confer virulence to naïve strains of V. harveyi [14]. While it was reported that V. owensii strain 47666-1 was more virulent than strain ACMM 642, causing 100 % mortality to Penaeus monodon larvae at 10 2 CFU ml -1 [13], there is no information yet to confirm whether a bacteriophage in this species confers virulence.…”
