Whole-genome sequence of Streptococcus agalactiae strain GIFTS31 isolated from streptococcosis-infected Nile tilapia in Bangladesh.

Streptococcus agalactiae strain GIFTS31 was isolated from a Nile tilapia infected with streptococcosis in Gazipur, Bangladesh. The draft genome of GIFTS31 comprises 2,039,674 bp with a GC content of 35% and encodes 1,957 predicted protein-coding sequences. The genome sequence provides valuable insights into the pathogenic potential of fish-associated S. agalactiae.
