High Functional Diversity in Mycobacterium tuberculosis Driven by Genetic Drift and Human Demography
Mycobacterium tuberculosis infects one third of the human world population and kills someone every 15 seconds. For more than a century, scientists and clinicians have been distinguishing between the human- and animal-adapted members of the M. tuberculosis complex (MTBC). However, all human-adapted s...
