Many of its unique features give feast for research and frus- tration in managing the disease. Though our understanding of the features and behaviour of V. cholerae are remarkable, suffering from its infection in the form ofcholeraisstillcontinuing,mostlyinAsianandAfricancountries.Owingtolack ofsurveillanceandtimelyreportingofcholerainendemicregionsduetoeconomic andotherdisincentives,theoverallcholerascenariohasnotchangedsubstantially. (cid:2) Theraisondêtreofitspersistenceinnatureismainlyattributedtoageoldfactors suchascontaminatedorinadequatewatersupply,sanitaryconditions,congregation of people due to natural calamities or political unrest and by and large the poor healthpractises. During the last three decades, intensive research has been made to understand the virulence properties of the organisms, genes that support the colonization and survival in the gut as well in the environments and their contribution in the epi- demiologyofcholera.Howcholeraspreadsaroundtheglobeandwhatdetermines its seasonal peaks in endemic areas are not well known. These features of cholera have been hypothesized primarily due to the biotic and abiotic environmental fac- torsandsuchfindingsareacknowledgedallovertheworld.However,utilizationof suchimportantinformationstillremainsagrayarea. Recently,studieshavealsobeenmadeontheadaptivemechanismsofV.cholerae intheenvironments.ThephenotypicandgeneticstudiesshowedthatV.choleraeis relentlessly flex, resulting in instantaneous adaptation to the environment as well as in the human host. Detection of strain diversity at the molecular level and its impact of disease dynamics are the other important components in the molecular epidemiology. This field of research is growing fast facilitated by recent techno- logical developments. However, on account of its broad spectrum of pathogenic potential,V.choleraestillremainsasaparadigmofhumanpathogen.
