Whole-genome sequence of an extensively drug-resistant <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> strain, AB/Mali-Bko/NPHI-APR.10, isolated from Bamako, Mali, in 2025
<i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> is a leading cause of nosocomial infections and ranks first on the World Health Organization's list of critical-priority pathogens for antimicrobial resistance, surveillance, and new drug development. We report the whole-genome assembly of an extensively drug-resistant <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> from the blood of a 6-month-old child in Bamako, Mali.
