Abstract excerpt
Pathogen evolution and genomic diversity are shaped by specific host immune pressures and therapeutic interventions. Analysis of the extant genomes of circulating strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a leading cause of infectious mortality that has co-evolved with humans for thousands of years, can provide new insights into host-pathogen interactions that underlie specific aspects of pathogenesis and onward...
