Abstract:
The possibilities of the autochthonous existence of V. cholerae in open water reservoirs, depending on the combined effect of different biotic and abiotic factors are considered. The role of adaptive variability of V. cholerae O1, biovar eltor for its preservation in the environment is emphasized.
