This study demonstrated the presence of virulence genes and genetic diversity among different serogroups of V. cholerae isolates from clinical samples in southern Thailand. V. cholerae O1 isolated over a period of multiple years were genetically related, suggesting that they had a clonal origin, whereas non-O1/non-O139 isolates could have evolved independently.
