Diversification of gene content in the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex is determined by phylogenetic and ecological signatures
ABSTRACTWe analyzed the pan-genome and gene content modulation of the most diverse genome data set of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) gathered to date. The closed pan-genome of the MTBC was characterized by reduced accessory and strain-specific genomes, compatible with its clonal natur...
