Draft genome sequence of the pathogenic bacterium Vibrio vulnificus V252 biotype 1, isolated in Israel

Abstract

We report the genome sequence of the pathogenic Vibrio vulnificus biotype 1 clade B, which is suggested to have a common ancestor with biotype 3. This draft genome of the clinical strain V252, isolated in Israel, represents the clonal clade B group that contains both clinical and environmental strains.
