title: Draft genome sequence of the chronic, nonclonal cystic fibrosis isolate Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain 18A.
abstract: Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain 18A is a clinical, nonclonal isolate retrieved from the sputum of a chronically infected cystic fibrosis patient. The genome of 18A was sequenced for comparison with environmental and clinical isolates to identify genes that might facilitate its persistence during infection.
