Abstract

ABSTRACT Streptococcus pneumoniae is a major global health concern, being a common cause of meningitis in both children and adults. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of P10_PNE_LCR, a S. pneumoniae 11A strain isolated in Northern Italy from an adult patient diagnosed with meningitis.
