The Vibrionaceae are a family of Pseudomonadota given their own order, Vibrionales. Inhabitants of fresh or salt water, several species are pathogenic, including the type species Vibrio cholerae, which is the agent responsible for cholera.

Kalina et al. (1984) isolated 24 strains of an oxidase-positive fermentative organism that had some properties of Aeromonas and some of Vibrio. The strains came from feces of healthy humans (12 strains), river water (6), and sewage (6). Kalina et al. (1984) did a numerical taxonomic analysis and defined them as “group II.” By DNA-DNA hybridization,...
The genus Beneckea was proposed as a new genus in the seventh edition of Bergey’s Manual of Determinative Bacteriology (Campbell, 1957). It was originally classified in the Family Achromobacteriaceae (Table 2) (Breed et al., 1957). Beneckea included six species: B. labra (the type species) B. ureasophora, B. chitinovora, B. hyperoptica, B. indolthe...
The genus Enhydrobacter was included in the family Vibrionaceae by Staley et al. (1987) and contains a single species, E. aerosaccus. This organism is quite different from all other species in the family because it contains intracellular gas vacuoles (Fig. 4). Van Ert and Staley (1971) isolated gas-vacuolated organisms from the oxygen-depleted ther...
Vreeland et al. (1980) isolated nine strains of an unusual bacterium from solar condensers at the Antilles International Salt Company facility on Bonaire, Neatherlands Antilles (Vreeland et al., 1980). They did a number of phenotypic tests and compared their strains to other salt-requiring bacteria. Based on differences among their strains and othe...
reference is not an exact match MacDonnell and Colwell (1985) studied the structure of 5S rRNA of many species of Vibrionaceae and other organisms and used cluster analysis to group species with similar rRNA sequences. Their data indicated that some of the species were more closely related to each other than to other organisms. Based on this criter...
Lucibacterium was proposed by Hendrie et al. (1970) and was included as “Genus V” of the family Vibrionaceae in the eight edition of Bergey’s Manual of Determinative Bacteriology (Buchanan and Gibbons, 1974). Lucibacterium contained a single species, Lucibacterium harveyi (Vibrio harveyi), and can be considered an attempt to subdivide the biolumine...
Oceanomonas was proposed by Miyamoto et al. (1961) and classified as a new genus in the family Vibrionaceae. The type species for Oceanomonas was designated as O. enteritis (= Vibrio parahaemolyticus) and it also included Oceanomonas alginolytica (Vibrio alginolyticus). The main purpose of this proposal was to separate the halophilic species of Vib...
In much of the older literature, bacteria that digest agar or alginic acid received special attention, and genera were set up to include all strains that digested one of these polysaccharides. The seventh edition of Bergey’s Manual of Determinative Bacteriology (see Table 2) recognized the genera Agarbacterium, Alginobacter, and Alginomonas.Strains...

Vibrios are gram-negative γ-proteobacteria that are ubiquitous in marine, estuarine and freshwater environments and encompass a diverse group of bacteria including many facultative symbiotic and pathogenic strains.
Feb 10, 2014 · The Vibrionaceae, which encompasses several potential pathogens, including V. cholerae, the causative agent of cholera, and V. vulnificus, the deadliest seafood-borne pathogen, are a well-studied family of marine bacteria that thrive in diverse habitats.
The Vibrionaceae are a family of Proteobacteria given their own order. Inhabitants of fresh or salt water, several species are pathogenic, including the type species Vibrio cholerae, which is the agent responsible for cholera.
Sep 30, 2022 · The Vibrionaceae. The bacterial family Vibrionaceae (Class Gammaproteobacteria) encompasses a cosmopolitan group of Gram-negative rods, straight or curved, which are mostly aquatic and possess tremendous metabolic and genetic diversity [ 1 ]. The family contains two circular chromosomes, one large and the other small (both circular).
