Abstract

We present the draft genome assembly of an extensively drug-resistant (XDR)Pseudomonas aeruginosastrain isolated from a patient with a history of genito urinary tuberculosis. The draft genome is 7,022,546 bp with a G+C content of 65.48%. It carries 7 phage genomes, genes for quorum sensing, biofilm formation, virulence, and antibiotic resistance.
