title: Draft Genome Sequence of C:P1.5-1,10-8:F3-6:ST-11 Meningococcal Clinical Isolate Associated with a Cluster on a Cruise Ship.
abstract: Meningococcal serogroup C strains, in particular those belonging to the ST-11 clonal complex, are known to cause invasive diseases worldwide. We report the genome sequence of a Neisseria meningitidis strain linked to a cluster of cases of invasive meningococcal disease on a cruise ship that was described in 2012.
