Hi,

check out the package "BiomaRt", which holds functions to access genomes from ensembl, wormbase, cosmic, and gramene. I think ensembl does not have an pseudomonas genome, so you should try wormbase maybe.

Link to the package: https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/biomaRt.html

i need to download from genbank plz in fasta

I think ensembl does not have an pseudomonas genome, so you should try wormbase maybe.

Pseudomonads are bacteria and won't be in wormbase (which pertains to a nematode, C.elegans).

ups yeah, you're right^^

Not a solution in R but you could use this utility to download the genomes you need [ncbi-genome-download]. There are other ways of doing this but this may be the easiest.
