Abstract

The bacteriophages lytic for Vibrio furnissi, Vibrio furniulis and Vibrio parahemolyticus were isolated from fish gills and shellfish. Nucleic acid of bacteriophage was prepared and restriction endonuclease profile was compared. All isolates contained deoxyribonucleic acid. V. fumissi bacteriophage from fish gills showed 2 bands with Bgl II, 1 with Pst, 3 with Hind III, 1 with Bm HI and 2 with EcoR I. V Puuialis phage represented 7 fragments with Bgl II, 1 with Pst, 4 with Hind III, and 2 with EcoR I. V parhemolyticn produced 13 sites with Hind III and 4 sites with EcoR I. The fragment types were varied depending on the phage isolation. All three phages were digested with Hind III and EcoR I with different sizes. V furnissi phage were digested with 5 different restriction enzymes. Key words: Bacteriophage, Vibrio furnissi, Vibrio fluvialis, Vibrio pnrahemolyticus, Deoxyribonucleic acid, Pst, Bam HI, Hind III, EcoR I, Bgl II.
