title: Whole genome sequence of Vibrio parahaemolyticus CICESE-170
design: Vibrio parahaemolyticus CICESE-170 strain, were obtained from stool samples in Mexico (Hidalgo state) in 1998. The strain was tlh, pr72h, tdh and ORF8 positive by PCR. Molecular analyses as PFGE, MLST (CC3 and ST-3), O3+ and K6+ antibodies, as well as the whole genome sequencing were made, those analyses indicate that CICESE-170 strain belong to V. parahaemolyticus O3:K6 pandemic strain.
