Streptococcus agalactiae is a major pathogen and is the leading cause of neonatal infections in industrialized countries. The diversity of strains isolated from two pregnant women was investigated. Here, we present the draft genome sequences of strains W8A2, W8A6, W10E2, and W10F3, obtained in order to ascertain their phylogenetic affiliation.
