Abstract

The Vibrionaceae show a wide range of niche specialization, from free-living forms to those attached to biotic and abiotic surfaces, from symbionts to pathogens and from estuarine inhabitants to deep-sea piezophiles. The existence of complete genome sequences for closely related species from varied aquatic niches makes this group an excellent case study for genome comparison.
