Extensive genomic diversity among <i>Mycobacterium marinum</i> strains revealed by whole genome sequencing
2018-01-17
Abstract excerpt
Mycobacterium marinum is the causative agent for the tuberculosis-like disease mycobacteriosis in fish and skin lesions in humans. Ubiquitous in its geographical distribution, M. marinum is known to occupy diverse fish as hosts. However, information about its genomic diversity is limited. Here, we provide the genome sequences for 15 M. marinum strains isolated from infected humans and fish. Comparative genomic a...
