Corrigendum: Phylogeny of Vibrio vulnificus From the Analysis of the Core-Genome: Implications for Intra-Species Taxonomy

2018

Vibrio vulnificus (Vv) is a multi-host pathogenic species currently subdivided into three biotypes (Bts). The three Bts are human-pathogens, but only Bt2 is also a fish-pathogen, an ability that is conferred by a transferable virulence-plasmid (pVvbt2). Here we present a phylogenomic analysis from the core genome of 80 Vv strains belonging to the three Bts recovered from a wide range of geographical and ecological sources. We have identified five well-supported phylogenetic groups or lineages (L). LI comprises a mixture of clinical and environmental Bt1 strains, most of them involved in human clinical cases related to raw seafood ingestion. LII is linked to the aquaculture industry and incl…

Polyphyletic Origin of Vibrio vulnificus Biotype 2 as Revealed by Sequence-Based Analysis ▿ †

2011

ABSTRACT A sequence-based analysis of seven housekeeping and virulence-related genes shows that the species Vibrio vulnificus is subdivided into three phylogenetic lineages that do not correspond with the biotypes and that biotype 2 is polyphyletic. These results support the reclassification of biotype 2 as a pathovar that would group the strains with pathogenic potential to develop vibriosis in fish.

Corrigendum: Phylogeny of Vibrio vulnificus From the Analysis of the Core-Genome: Implications for Intra-Species Taxonomy

Potentially human-virulent Vibrio vulnificus isolates from diseased great pompano (Trachinotus goodei).

2019

Vibrio vulnificus is an opportunistic human pathogen responsible for the majority of seafood-associated deaths worldwide and is also a relevant fish pathogen for the aquaculture industry. In addition to infections in aquatic livestock, V. vulnificus also represents a risk to aquarium animals. For the first time, this work describes an important mortality outbreak in Trachinotus goodei in a zoo aquarium, with the isolation of Vibrio vulnificus (Vv) from the internal organs of the diseased fish. The isolates were identified by MALDI-TOF MS, serotyped and characterized by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Although the isolates from great pompanos did not belong to pathovar piscis (forme…

Différences de capacités d’induction de la germination de deux pathovars d’orobanche rameuse sur une gamme d’hôtes des familles des brassicacées et f…

2016

Branched broomrape (Phelipanche ramosa (L.) Pomel) is a holoparasite weed causing significant yield losses on several crops, especially in France on winter oilseed rape fields. The ability to induce germination of seeds of branched broomrape, variable between host species, represent an important information to identify the status of weed species present in the crop (host or non-host). In this study, conducted in in vitro conditions, we focused on two botanical families and two dominant pathovars of branched broomrape in France. We show that the host species is the only important explanatory factor of seed germination rate, the latter being not affected by the pathovar. Among the species stu…

Variabilité génétique, d’histoire de vie et d’infection des populations de l’orobanche rameuse en France

2013

L'orobanche rameuse est une Angiosperme holoparasite épirhize qui infecte une large gamme de cultures annuelles. Selon la culture hôte, la durée de son cycle peut varier de 14 semaines (sur tomate/tabac) à 40 semaines (sur colza). Nous avons mené une expérimentation d'infections croisées afin d'évaluer l'intensité et la cinétique d''infection de populations d'orobanche. Deux populations du parasite, P-long collectée sur le colza et P-short collectée sur le tabac, ont été cultivées sur deux cultures (colza et tomate). Après, 4, 8, 12 et 16 semaines de culture, l'intensité d'infection et la distribution des stades de développement de l'orobanche ont été déterminées. Les deux populations d'oro…

L'orobanche rameuse. Une plante parasite dont la variabilité s'avère complexe

2013

EASPEEcolDurGEAPSICT1; National audience; L'orobanche rameuse (Phelipanche ramosa (L.) Pomel) est une plante connue pour parasiter préférentiellement la tomate dans les pays du bassin méditerra-néen, le tabac et le chanvre en Europe centrale. Mais le colza semble être un nouvel hôte préférentiel avec une augmentation du nombre de parcelles infectées en Bulgarie, Espagne, France et Italie. Pourquoi cette orobanche inquiète Une expansion massive sur colza En France, on observe une expansion massive de cette espèce dans les parcelles de colza depuis la fin des années 1990.
