Transition bias influences the evolution of antibiotic resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Transition bias, an overabundance of transitions relative to transversions, has been widely reported among studies of the rates and spectra of spontaneous mutations. However, demonstrating the role of transition bias in adaptive evolution remains challenging. In particular, it is unclear whether suc...
