This book addresses current topics on pathogenic Vibrio spp. from a
comprehensive and holistic perspective. Here, experts in the field
provide timely chapters, ranging from genomics, pathogen emergence,
and epidemiology to pathogenesis, virulence regulation and host
colonization. Questions addressed include: How does climate change
affect the spread of these bacteria? What is the status of current
vaccines? Are there novel therapeutic options to treat Vibrio
infections? Is there likelihood of emergence of new pathogenic
strains or species? Can insights from mathematical models and
epidemiology lead to prediction of pathogen outbreaks? Recent
decades have seen a steady increase in Vibrio spp. infections
originating in aquatic and marine habitats, driven by higher human
population densities, warming of polluted oceans, natural and
human-made disasters, and mass seafood production. These conditions
increase the likelihood of pathogenic Vibrio spp. coming into
contact with humans, making their study even more timely and
relevant as these problems escalate over time. This book is a
valuable resource for health management professionals, experienced
microbiologists/ microbial ecologists, and early career scientists
alike who want to learn more about these important environmental
human pathogens. The ideas and technologies presented in this book
for preventing, controlling, and monitoring Vibrio spp. infections
contribute to the UN Sustainable Development Goal 3: Good Health
and Well-Being.
