While antibiotic-resistant bacteria have been detected in extreme environments, including Antarctica, to date there are no reports of <i>Acinetobacter</i> species isolated from this region. Here, we characterized by whole-genome sequencing (WGS) the genetic content of a single antibiotic-resistant <i>Acinetobacter</i> spp. isolate (A154) collected in Antarctica. The isolate was recovered in 2013 from soil samples at Fildes Peninsula, Antarctica, and was identified by detection of the intrinsic O ...[more]
