Plasmid profiles and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) techniques were used to analyse the genetic differentiation of 57 isolates of Vibrio parahaemolyticus isolated from coastal water. Among the isolates, 16 plasmid patterns were observed, with plasmid sizes ranging from 1.5 to 7.6 megadal...
