Abstract

Here, we report the draft whole-genome sequence of Streptococcus suis strain S10, isolated from the tonsils of a healthy pig. S. suis S10 belongs to the highly virulent serotype 2, which includes isolates that cause infectious diseases, including meningitis, in pigs and human. The genome contains a complete prophage that encodes a candidate virulence gene.

Highlights

  • We report the draft whole-genome sequence of Streptococcus suis strain S10, isolated from the tonsils of a healthy pig

  • A BaseClear in-house pipeline carried out quality assessment of paired-end reads by Illumina Chastity filtering, removal of reads containing adapters, PhiX control signal, and FASTQC Quality Control Tool 0.10.0

  • CONTIGuator (12) aligned S10 genomic contigs to the P1/7 genome; 23 S10 contigs with a combined base content of 1,997,858 base pairs were mapped to the total of 2,007,491 base pairs of P1/7

Summary

Introduction

We report the draft whole-genome sequence of Streptococcus suis strain S10, isolated from the tonsils of a healthy pig. DNA library preparation using the Illumina Nextera XT kit following the manufacturer’s protocol and genomic DNA sequencing using an Illumina HiSeq 2500 instrument on a paired-end library (125 cycles) were carried out at BaseClear B.V. FASTQ sequence files were generated using the Illumina CASAVA pipeline 1.8.3. A BaseClear in-house pipeline carried out quality assessment of paired-end reads by Illumina Chastity filtering, removal of reads containing adapters, PhiX control signal, and FASTQC Quality Control Tool 0.10.0.
