Abstract
The DNA colony hybridization test with the polynucleotide probe for Vibrio parahaemolyticus toxR gene was performed. All 373 strains of V. parahaemolyticus gave positive results, and the strains belonging to four other Vibrio species including Vibrio alginolyticus gave weakly positive results, suggesting that toxR sequence variation may reflect the phylogenetic relationships of Vibrio species. We then established a toxR-targeted PCR protocol for the specific detection of V. parahaemolyticus.Entities:
