Abstract

Vibrio ostreicida is a Gram-negative gammaproteobacterium that has been shown to cause disease in bivalve larvae. Presented here is the draft genome of the type strain Vibrio ostreicida strain PP-203, which was isolated from the inner surface of an Ostrea edulis (European flat oyster) spat container with recorded deaths at a hatchery in Galicia, Spain.
