A cross-environment comparison of nontuberculous mycobacterial diversity

2025-08-04

Abstract excerpt

Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are a group of environmental bacteria that encompass nearly 200 described species, some of which can cause chronic pulmonary infection in humans. What makes these infections unique is that they are environmentally acquired, yet there remains a limited understanding of how different environments contribute to potential pathogen exposure. Here, we use new and existing marker gene da...
