Under adverse circumstances, bacteria enter the viable but non-culturable (VBNC) state, a dormancy-like state for survival. The altered gene regulation underlying the entry of the VBNC state has not yet been well elucidated. Here, we reported that a subpopulation of cells (23.8 %) in Vibrio alginolyticus cultures enters the VBNC state in response to nutrient limitation at alkaline pH. The proteolysis of pivotal virulence regulator ToxR at these conditions is associated with VBNC formation. Meantime, ToxR abrogation impaired the mobility
