Principal components analysis revealed two main groups among 163 Vibrio anguillarum cultures from diseased fish from Norwegian waters. Nearly all isolates from farmed salmonids fell in group I (arabinose positive) but those from wild fish, particularly saithe Gadus virens , more commonly appeared in group II (arabinose negative).
