The recently elucidated complete genome sequence of Vibrio harveyi CAIM 1792 provides an opportunity to understand the genetic determinants responsible for the unique morbidity and mortality this organism causes when pathogenizing the white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei. In this study, we compared the genome of V. harveyi CAIM 1792 with draft genome sequences from other V. harveyi strains and closely related species (V. owensii, V. rotiferianus, V. campbellii) to determine the level of genetic conservation among these strains/species and to identify genetic determinants involved in pathogenicity which are unique to V. harveyi CAIM 1792.
