Abstract excerpt

This paper formulates a set of rules to classify genotypes of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) into major lineages using spoligotypes and MIRU-VNTR results. The rules synthesize prior literature that characterizes lineages by spacer deletions and variations in the number of repeats seen at locus MIRU24 (alias VNTR2687). A tool that efficiently and accurately implements this rule base is now freely...
