Unraveling the epidemiology of Mycobacterium bovis using whole-genome sequencing combined with environmental and demographic data

When studying the dynamics of a pathogen in a host population, one crucial question is whether it transitioned from an epidemic (i.e., the pathogen population and the number of infected hosts are increasing) to an endemic stable state (i.e., the pathogen population reached an equilibrium). For slow-...
