Closed Genome Sequences of Clinical Neisseria gonorrhoeae Strains Obtained from Combined Oxford Nanopore and Illumina Sequencing

Year: 2019

Type: article

Abstract: Neisseria gonorrhoeae is the etiological agent of gonorrhea, the second most common notifiable disease in the United States. Here, we used a hybrid approach combining Oxford Nanopore Technologies MinION and Illumina MiSeq sequencing data to obtain closed genome sequences of nine clinical N. gonorrhoeae isolates.
