Genotypic and phenotypic diversity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex genotypes prevalent in West Africa.

Genotypic and phenotypic diversity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex genotypes prevalent in West Africa.

Findings from previous comparative genomics studies of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) suggest genomic variation among the genotypes may have phenotypic implications. We investigated the diversity in the phenotypic profiles of the main prevalent MTBC genotypes in West Africa. Thirty-si...
