Complete Genome Sequences of Bordetella pertussis Clinical Isolate FR5810 and Reference Strain Tohama from Combined Oxford Nanopore and Illumina Sequencing

Here, we describe the complete genome sequences of two Bordetella pertussis strains, FR5810, a clinical isolate recovered from the respiratory tract of an infant, and Tohama, a key reference strain for the species. Sequences were obtained using a hybrid approach combining Oxford Nanopore Technologies MinION and Illumina NextSeq 500 sequence data.
