  abstract = {{V}ibrio cholerae, a bacterium autochthonous to the aquatic environment, is the causative agent of cholera, a severe watery, life-threatening diarrheal disease occurring predominantly in developing countries. {V}. cholerae, including both serogroups {O}1 and {O}139, is found in association with crustacean zooplankton, mainly cope-pods, and notably in ponds, rivers, and estuarine systems globally. {T}he incidence of cholera and occurrence of pathogenic {V}. cholerae strains with zooplankton were studied in two areas of {B}angladesh: {B}akerganj and {M}athbaria. {C}hitinous zooplankton communities of several bodies of water were analyzed in order to understand the interaction of the zooplankton population composition with the population dynamics of pathogenic {V}. cholerae and incidence of cholera. {T}wo dominant zooplankton groups were found to be consistently associated with detection of {V}. cholerae and/or occurrence of cholera cases, namely, rotifers and cladocerans, in addition to copepods. {L}ocal differences indicate there are subtle ecological factors that can influence interactions between {V}. cholerae, its plankton hosts, and the incidence of cholera.},
