Genomic and phenotypic characterization of Mycobacterium tuberculosis’ closest-related non-tuberculous mycobacteria

ABSTRACT Four species of non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) rated as biosafety level 1 or 2 (BSL-1/BSL-2) organisms and showing higher genomic similarity with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) than previous comparator species Mycobacterium kansasii and Mycobacterium marinum were subjected to genomic...
