Abstract excerpt

We report on a fine molecular and phylogenetical characterization of circulating Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains isolated from patients during a 1-year period in Trinidad and Tobago (T&T). The spoligotyping data coupled to minisatellite typing and available epidemiological data showed that a single major clone of "evolutionary modern" tubercle bacilli (SIT566) was responsible for more than half of the...
