Interpretive Summary: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen and it can cause subclinical and clinical mastitis in cattle. Pseudomonas species are environmental pathogens and can be found in humid areas such as soiled beddings, manure, contaminated water, and milking parlors. Here in this study, the whole genome of a new multidrug-resistant P. aeruginosa strain, which was isolated from a naturally occurring case of chronic mastitis, was sequenced.

Technical Abstract: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is considered an environmental pathogen, and it can cause acute and chronic mastitis in dairy cows. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of a multidrug-resistant P. aeruginosa strain (2011C-S1) isolated from a Holstein cow showing signs of chronic mastitis that was nonresponsive to intramammary antibiotic treatment.
