Complete nontuberculous mycobacteria whole genomes using an optimized DNA extraction protocol for long-read sequencing
30 Oct 2019
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are a major cause of pulmonary and systemic disease in at-risk populations. Gaps in knowledge about transmission patterns, evolution, and pathogenicity during infection have prompted a recent surge in genomic NTM research. Increased availability and affordability of whole genome sequencing (WGS) techniques provide new opportunities to sequence and construct complete...
