Abstract

The Brown Ring Disease (BRD) caused high mortality rates since 1986 in the Manila clamVenerupis philippinarumintroduced and cultured in Western Europe from the 1970s. The causative agent of BRD is a Gram-Negative bacterium,Vibrio tapetis, which is also pathogenic to fish. Here we report the first assembly of the complete genome ofV. tapetisCECT4600T, together with the genome sequences of 16 additional strains isolated across a broad host and geographic range. Our extensive genome dataset allowed us to describe the pathogen pan- and core genomes and to identify putative virulence factors. TheV. tapetiscore genome consists of 3,352 genes, including multiple potential virulence factors represented by haemolysins, transcriptional regulators, Type I restriction modification system, GGDEF domain proteins, several conjugative plasmids, and a Type IV secretion system. Future research on the coevolutionary arms race betweenV. tapetisvirulence factors and host resistance mechanisms will improve our understanding of how pathogenicity develops in this emerging pathogen.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 9. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 30 March 2023.
All research outputs
#4,309,367
of 25,593,129 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Microbiology
#3,990
of 29,590 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#78,739
of 344,754 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Microbiology
#126
of 580 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,593,129 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 83rd percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 29,590 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.4. This one has done well, scoring higher than 86% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 344,754 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 77% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 580 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 78% of its contemporaries.
