Abstract
Streptococcus agalactiae(group B streptococcus [GBS]) is a pathogen that causes meningoencephalitis in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Here, we reported the complete genome sequence ofS. agalactiaestrain ZQ0910, which was isolated from the GIFT strain of Nile tilapia in Guangdong, China.Keywords
