Genetic relatedness of tcpA and toxT genes among strains of V. cholerae and V. mimicus of different serogroups. (A) The novel tcpA gene of V. mimicus of this study did not cluster in classical strains, El Tor strains, or other types of strains but formed a separate clade showing closeness to strains of serogroups O56 and O115 of V. cholerae. (B) The novel toxT gene of V. mimicus of this study did not group into the major cluster comprising the toxT genes of V. cholerae O1 classical, El Tor, O139, and non-O1/non-O139 strains or of other V. mimicus strains but grouped into a separate cluster with atypical toxT genes reported in a few non-O1/non-O139 strains of V. cholerae.
