Draft Genome Sequence of Colistin-Only-Susceptible Pseudomonas aeruginosa Strain ST235, a Hypervirulent High-Risk Clone in Spain

We report the genome of colistin-only-susceptible Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain ST235 (PA_ST235). This isolate was obtained in the setting of an outbreak in a tertiary hospital in Spain. This clone was apparently associated with a significantly higher mortality rate. The ST235 clone also appears to...

Sumario:We report the genome of colistin-only-susceptible Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain ST235 (PA_ST235). This isolate was obtained in the setting of an outbreak in a tertiary hospital in Spain. This clone was apparently associated with a significantly higher mortality rate. The ST235 clone also appears to be associated with greater virulence.
