Abstract excerpt

Determining bacterial fitness represents a major challenge and no single parameter can accurately predict the ability of a certain pathogen to succeed. The M strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis managed to spread and establish in the community and caused the largest multidrug-resistant tuberculosis outbreak in Latin America. We have previously shown that the M strain can manipulate the host immune response, but...
