Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a primary cause of opportunistic infections. We have sequenced and annotated the
genomes of two P. aeruginosa clinical isolates evidencing different antibiotic susceptibilities. Registered differences
in the composition of their accessory genomes may provide clues on P. aeruginosa strategies to thrive in
different environments like infection loci.PTDC/EBB-BIO/104980/2008, Foundation for Science and Technology (Portugal)
