Abstract
Apart from serology, the strains of V. cholerae can be discriminated by this conventional phage typing system that offers the basic information on identification, biotyping and discrimination of strains. But, a high level of heterogeneity was observed in RAPD and PFGE profiles indicating the clonal diversity of V. cholerae O1 and O139 strains. It was concluded that these strains were phenotypically identical through phage typing system and antibiogram but genetically dissimilar, as shown in molecular typing systems.
