Draft genome sequences of four closely linked Vibrio vulnificus isolates from the biotype 1 environmental genotype

Abstract

Biotype 1 of Vibrio vulnificus, which causes severe invasive intestinal and wound infections, is split into two genotypes with all previously sequenced clinical isolates from the C genotypes. We report here the whole-genome sequencing of two clinical isolates and two closely linked oyster isolates from the E genotype for comparative studies.
