Abstract

The infections by vibrio are an important problem in shrimp culture due to high mortalities and large economic losses caused. The aim of the study was to identify genes of pathogenicity in vibrio bacteria isolated of L. vannamei shrimp cultured in an intensive system on greenhouse with zero water exchange. It was determined total bacterial count and vibrio in hemolymph, hepatopancreas and gills of the shrimp. The strains were identified as Vibrio ssp., V. harveyi hemolysin gene (vhh), V. harveyi toxR and other pathogenic vibrio species by PCR. Both genes (hemolysin and toxR) were identified in four isolates of shrimp. This methodology could be a tool in the detection of V. harveyi for prevention and control. A highlight of this study was the absence of V. cholerae (V. chol), V. vulnificus (Vvh-785) y V. harveyi (LuxN)
