Genome sequences of <i>pirAB</i> <sup>+</sup> and <i>pirAB</i> <sup>−</sup> <i>Vibrio campbellii</i> strains isolated from shrimp ponds with mortality outbreaks carry type VI secretion systems
ABSTRACT Vibrio campbellii strains PH1401 and PH1409 were isolated from shrimp ponds with documented mortality outbreaks in the Philippines. PH1401 and PH1409 share identity with V. campbellii strain BoB-53. Whole-genome analysis reveals full-length pirAB binary toxin genes in PH1401 . Both strains carry three type VI secretion systems.
