The PubMLST Pneumococcal Genome Library is a curated collection of published genomes hosted within the PubMLST Streptococcus pneumoniae database.
The Pneumococcal Genome Library was developed by Melissa Jansen van Rensburg and Angela Brueggemann, with the support of Keith Jolley, James Bray, Duncan Berger, Andy Fohrmann, and Martin Maiden, at the University of Oxford.
This work was funded by the Wellcome Trust and Meningitis Research Foundation. The paper describing the PGL, cgMLST typing scheme and LIN code barcoding system can be found here. A pre-print describing LIN codes is here.
