Genome-to-genome analysis reveals associations between human and mycobacterial genetic variation in tuberculosis patients from Tanzania

Abstract The risk and prognosis of tuberculosis (TB) are influenced by a complex interplay between human and bacterial genetic factors. While previous genomic studies have largely examined human and bacterial genomes separately, we adopted an integrated approach to uncover host–pathogen interactions...
