      Two novel bla<sub>DIM-1</sub>- or bla<SUB>IMP-1</SUB>-containing genomic islands (GIs) were discovered by whole-genome sequence analyses in four extensively drug-resistant (XDR) <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> isolates from inpatients at a tertiary hospital in Ghana. The strains were of sequence type 234 (ST234) and formed a phylogenetic clade together with ST111, which is recognized as a global ...
