Nine dominant bacterial isolates were obtained from different batches of Crassostrea gigas spat experiencing high mortality rates in a French experimental hatchery/nursery in 2007. Using phenotypic analysis combined with multilocus sequence analysis, the isolates were shown to be genetically close to the Vibrio tubiashii type strain. Based on (1) analyses of the recA gene sequences; (2) the results of DNA–DNA hybridization assays between 07/118 T2 (LMG 27884 = CECT 8426), which is a representative strain, and the V. tubiashii type strain (69%); and (3) phenotypic traits, the bacteria were classified in a group close to American V. tubiashii strain. Its virulence (70% of mortalities) and the toxicity of the extracellular products of 07/118 T2 was... |

Extracellular products (ECPs) of the French V. tubiashii strain 07/118 T2 were previously reported to be toxic for the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas. In this study we now assessed host cellular immune responses and bacterial potential effectors by which these ECPs can be associated with host damages. The adhesion capacity (28% inhibition) and phagocytosis ability (56% inhibition) of oyster hemocytes were the main functions affected following in vitro contact between hemocytes and V. tubiashii ECPs. This may be linked to the demonstration of the capability of ECPs to cleave various cellular substrates as oyster collagen. Moreover, a strong metalloproteolytic activity was recorded with general (azocasein) and specific (ADAM) substrates and characterized... |

Vibrio tubiashii is a marine pathogen isolated from larval and juvenile bivalve molluscs causing bacillary necrosis. Recent studies demonstrated the isolation of this species in a French experimental hatchery/nursery affecting Crassostrea gigas spat in 2007. Here, using larvae of C. gigas as an interaction model, we showed that the French V. tubiashii is virulent to larvae and can cause bacillary necrosis symptoms with a LD50 about 2.3 × 103 cfu ml-1 after 24 h. Moreover, complete or GP- HPLC fractionated extracellular products (ECPs) of this strain appeared toxic to larvae. MS-MS analysis of the different ECPs fractions revealed the existence of an extracellular metalloprotease and other suspected virulence factors. This observation is also supported by... |
