Abstract

The high-quality draft genomes of two Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains, one that causes the acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) in cultured shrimps (FIM-S1708(+)), and another that does not (FIM-S1392(-)) are reported. A chromosome-scale assembly for the FIM-S1392(-) genome is reported here. The analysis of the two genomes gives some clues regarding the genomic differences between the strains.
