Abstract

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an important opportunistic pathogen that has the ability to grow in a range of environmental niches. Here, we report the draft genome sequences of 10 environmental strains of the bacterium isolated from soils, sediments, and waters in various locations in North America and South Africa.
