Under its protective outer sheath, or mantle, are lobes bulging with bioluminescent bacteria, billions and billions of Vibrio fischeri chemically glowing a cool cobalt blue. The squid can sense ...

The Hawaiian bobtail squid gets Vibrio fischeri into its light organ by means of chemical signals and a complicated obstacle course that blocks out other bacteria. Once established in the squid’s ...

While most cases are in the southern part of the Eastern Seaboard, the flesh-eating bacteria vibrio is spreading north because of climate change, a new study found. Between 2017 and 2018 ...

Five gene clusters have been integrated into the bacterium Vibrio natriegens to engineer a strain that can remediate five ...

Scientists led by Karla Satchell, Ph.D., the Anne Stewart Youmans Professor of Microbiology at Northwestern University, have ...

Foster explores how stresses such as microgravity alter the biomolecular communication between the squid and its symbiotic bacteria, Vibrio fischeri. Ultimately, this could help scientists gain ...

The prevalence of vibrio bacteria in sea waters is increasing around the world as water temperatures rise due to climate change, according to the European Food Standards' Agency (EFSA).
