One organism of this genus contains the CTX phi prophage in its genome.
One organism of this genus contains the CTX phi prophage in its genome. One species in this genus exhibits the Kanagawa phenomenon on blood agar; that species also expresses the thermostable direct hemolysin and is known as the parahemolyticus species. The LuxI/R quorum sensor was discovered in another organism of this genus, with species name fischeri. The vulnificus species can cause a fatal blistering infection when exposed to a wound, and a more well-known species in this genus produces a toxin which activates G-proteins by ribosylation. That species has O1 and O139 pathogenic strains that cause watery diarrhea. For 10 points, name this genus of comma-shaped bacteria, which includes the causative agent of cholera.
