Draft genome sequences of 13 putatively novel Haemophilus species and strains assembled from human saliva

We present the draft metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) of 13 Haemophilus representatives from human saliva. MAGs were reconstructed by a streamlined pre-assembly mapping approach performed against 9 clinically relevant reference genomes. Overall, genomes belonging to 2 potentially novel Haemophilus species and 11 strains were recovered, as determined by genome-wide ANI analysis.
