Abstract excerpt

RD(Rio) is a novel Mycobacterium tuberculosis lineage of the Latin American-Mediterranean (LAM) family. LAM has been found worldwide but is more predominant in South America. The aim of this study was to assess the presence of the RD(Rio) lineage and LAM family in the city of Rio Grande, Brazil, and to investigate the fitness of these strains based on determination of their growth rate. Fifty clinical isolates of...
