Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen for plants, animals and man. It is responsible for severe nosocomial infections and chronically colonizes lungs of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) leading to morbidity and mortality. The genomes of the reference strain PAO1 www.pseudomonas.com and of several other strains have been sequenced completely, the results are invaluable for the research on pseudomonas genomics.
