The ecology of the most relevant Vibrio species for human health and their relation to water quality and biogeochemistrywere studied in two estuaries in Argentinian Patagonia. Vibrio cholerae and Vibrio parahaemolyticuswere reported in N29% of cases at the Río Colorado and Río Negro estuaries. Neith...
