Abstract excerpt
Pulmonary disease caused by non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM-PD) is an emerging global health concern. Among NTM, Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis (MAH) is the major causative agent of NTM-PD. Similar to Mycobacterium tuberculosis, MAH exhibits lineage-specific geographical distributions and host adaptations. Here, we characterized three MAH strains from the residential bathrooms of Mycobacterium avium...
