Global-scale GWAS associates a subset of SNPs with animal-adapted variants in M. tuberculosis complex
Abstract Background While Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) variants are clonal, variant tuberculosis is a human-adapted pathogen, and variant bovis infects many hosts. Despite nucleotide identity between MTBC variants exceeding 99.95%, it remains unclear what drives these differences. Marke...
