Taxonomic reassessment of genomes from a divergent population of Streptococcus suis by average nucleotide identity analysis

This dataset provides genomic-level re-identification and taxonomic reassessment of Streptococcus suis out-population strains based on average nucleotide identity (ANI), 16S rRNA gene comparisons, and other phylogenetic markers. The dataset includes an Excel workbook with eight sheets (Sheet A–H), which together constitute Supplementary Table S1. This table contains detailed information on the studied strains, including their disease association, sequence alignment results (identity, coverage, and length) of 16S rRNA genes against both the S. suis type strain S735 and a database of prokaryotic type strains, ANI and AAI values compared to S735, accession numbers for short-read and long-read data, genome assembly IDs, phylogenetic lineage within the S. suis tree, group classification within the out-population, and cluster medoid status indicating representative strains. Through comparative genomic analysis, this study established an ANI threshold of 93.17% for defining authentic S. suis, ..., The analysis primarily employed ANI (Average Nucleotide Identity), 16S rRNA sequences, and AAI (Average Amino Acid Identity) comparisons to calculate relevant information for the entire Streptococcus suis out-population as well as the type strains of known species within the genus Streptococcus., # Taxonomic reassessment of genomes from a divergent population of Streptococcus suis by average nucleotide identity analysis
