Abstract

ABSTRACTHere we report the complete genome sequence of Streptococcus agalactiae strain 874391. This serotype III isolate is a member of the hypervirulent sequence type 17 (ST-17) lineage that causes a disproportionate number of cases of invasive disease in humans and mammals. A brief historical context of the strain is discussed.

Highlights

  • We report the complete genome sequence of Streptococcus agalactiae strain 874391

  • Single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing was performed on an RS-II machine (Pacific Biosciences, CA, USA) using P6-C4 chemistry at The University of Melbourne, Australia

  • Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) sequence read data were assembled de novo using Canu version 1.3 [23]
