Whole-genome sequencing and analysis of <i>Streptococcus iniae</i> strain isolated from the brain of tilapia ( <i>Oreochromis</i> sp.)
<i>Streptococcus iniae</i> is a bacterium that can infect fish, mammals, and humans. In this study, the <i>S. iniae</i>-313 strain was isolated from the brain of an infected tilapia, and the analysis of its sequenced genome is reported. The data revealed that <i>S. iniae</i>-313 carried antibiotic-resistant genes and virulence factors.
