Abstract
An ecological study ofVibrio parahaemolyticus was carried out from December 1970 to December 1971 in the Rhode River of Chesapeake Bay. The annual cycle of the organism was elucidated and factors restricting its distribution in the estuary were described, including the association of the organism with zooplankton. Numerical taxonomy was employed for identification and classification ofV. parahaemolyticus and related organisms on the basis of substrate utilization tests. From characteristics recorded forV. parahaemolyticus, it is concluded to be an estuarine organism.Year: 1977 PMID: 24231972 DOI: 10.1007/BF02014284
