Abstract

Genomic data on clinically important bacteria species such as Streptococcus pneumoniae and Streptococcus pseudopneumoniae from low- and middle-income countries, including Ghana, are scarce. In this study, we provide data on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and whole-genome profiles of a collection of streptococci species to support AMR surveillance efforts in the country.
