Zusammenfassung:	Classification of V. vulnificus: A Pathogenesis Perspective? Because of the abundance of strains and classification systems in addition to an ability to rampantly undergo recombination, development of a rapid identification method, for example in commercial seafood, would be a useful strategy to combat V. vulnificus infections. [...]V. vulnificus GbpA is also a mucin-binding protein and is essential for pathogenesis in a mouse model [20].
