Evaluating selection at intermediate scales within genes provides robust identification of genes under positive selection in <i>M. tuberculosis</i> clinical isolates
2025-05-12
Abstract excerpt
Multiple studies have reported genes in the M. tuberculosis (Mtb) genome that are under diversifying selection, based on genetic variants among Mtb clinical isolates. These might reflect adaptions to selection pressures associated with modern clinical treatment of TB. Many, but not all, of these genes under selection are related to drug resistance. Most of these studies have evaluated selection at the gene-level....
