Abstract
Vibrio anguillarum phage CHOED was isolated from Chilean mussels. It is a virulent phage showing effective inhibition of V. anguillarum. CHOED has potential in phage therapy, because it can protect fish from vibriosis in fish farms. Here, we announce the completely sequenced genome of V. anguillarum phage CHOED.
Highlights
Vibrio anguillarum phage CHOED was isolated from Chilean mussels
Vibrio anguillarum is a marine Gram-negative bacterium that is the etiologic agent of vibriosis, a fatal hemorrhagic septicemia that affects Ͼ50 freshand saltwater fish species, including species of economic importance to the aquaculture industry
Antibiotics are usually delivered in the feed, and this may affect the normal microbiota of fish (2)
Summary
Vibrio anguillarum phage CHOED was isolated from Chilean mussels. It is a virulent phage showing effective inhibition of V. anguillarum. Vibrio anguillarum ( known as Listonella anguillarum) is a marine Gram-negative bacterium that is the etiologic agent of vibriosis, a fatal hemorrhagic septicemia that affects Ͼ50 freshand saltwater fish species, including species of economic importance to the aquaculture industry (salmonids, flatfish, seabass, and seabream). Antibiotics are still the main therapeutic tools for controlling bacterial diseases in aquaculture.
