Abstract

Vibriosis accounts for 66.7% of diseases reported in groupers' cultures and affects almost all stages of growth. The disease could lead up to mortality up to 50% mortality, and it was reported that high stocking density and poor fish handling were among the factors that contributed to the disease dissemination. V. harveyi has been reported to be among the causative agent and has caused acute mortality in cage groupers. In this study, we report the genome of V. harveyi VH1 isolated from a diseased tiger grouper Epinephelus fuscoguttatus, reared in a cage farm located in the coastal area of Langkawi.
