Edwardsiella sp. EA181011 Genome sequencing. Edwardsiella sp. EA181011

An atypical (non-motile, non-hemolytic, unable to grow at 42°C) strain was isolated from the kidneys of eight white groupers (Epinephelus aeneus) that were either moribund or that had died overnight. The affected fish were the offspring of individuals caught several years before off the Mediterranean coast of Israel and part of the brood stock cultured in Eilat (Red Sea).
