Whole-Genome Sequencing Analysis to Identify Infection with Multiple Species of Nontuberculous Mycobacteria

Mixed infection with multiple species of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) is difficult to identify and to treat. Current conventional molecular-based methods for identifying mixed infections are limited due to low specificity. Here, we evaluated the utility of whole-genome sequencing (WGS) analysis...
