2020-11-08
Abstract excerpt
The causative agent of tuberculosis (TB) comprises seven human-adapted lineages. Human movements and host genetics are crucial to TB dissemination. We analyzed whole-genome sequencing data for a countrywide collection of 1154 isolates and a provincial collection of 1296 isolates, constructed the best-scoring maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree, conducted Bayesian evolutionary analysis to compute the most recent c...
