title: Supplemental material of "An annotated whole-genome multilocus sequence typing schema for scalable high resolution typing of Streptococcus pyogenes"

description: This supplemental material includes the genome assemblies, associated metadata and analysis results for five datasets used to define a publicly available annotated wgMLST schema for <em>S. pyogenes</em> and to evaluate its suitability for high resolution typing. A brief description for each file in the dataset is available in the included README file. Raw sequencing data and sample metadata for the 265 isolates included in Dataset1 have been deposited in the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) under Project PRJEB49967. The wgMLST schema was created with chewBBACA and is publicly available at chewie-NS, where a more detailed description of schema creation, annotation and curation can be found.
