Population Genomics of Nontuberculous Mycobacteria Recovered from United States Cystic Fibrosis Patients
2019-06-06
Abstract excerpt
Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) pose a threat to individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF) due to an increased prevalence of pulmonary infections, innate drug resistance of the bacteria, and potential transmission between CF patients. To explore the genetic diversity of NTM isolated from CF patients within the United States (US) and to identify potential transmission events, we sequenced and analyzed the genomes of...
