Assessment of closely related Mycobacterium tuberculosis variants with different transmission success and in vitro infection dynamics
Abstract Whole genome sequencing (WGS) is able to differentiate closely related Mycobacterium tuberculosis variants within the same transmission cluster. Our aim was to evaluate if this higher discriminatory power may help identify and characterize more actively transmitted variants and understand t...
