First time whole genome sequencing of Mycobacterium bovis from the environment supports transmission at the animal-environment interface
29 Apr 2024
Abstract excerpt
Spreading of Mycobacterium bovis causing animal tuberculosis (TB) at livestock-wildlife-environment interfaces remains a significant problem. Recently, we provided evidence of widespread environmental contamination of an endemic animal TB setting with viable and dormant M. bovis cells able to recover metabolic activity, making indirect transmission via environmental contamination plausible. We now report the...
