Draft Genome Sequence ofProvidencia stuartiiPS71, a Multidrug-Resistant Strain Associated with Nosocomial Infections in Greece.
Providencia stuartiiis frequently associated with nosocomial outbreaks and displays intrinsic resistance to many commonly used antimicrobials. We report here the draft genome sequence of aP. stuartiistrain carrying acquired resistance genes conferring panresistance to cephalosporins (blaSHV-5andblaVEB-1), carbapenems (blaVIM-1), and aminoglycosides (rmtB) involved in an outbreak in Greek hospitals.
