Independent Large Scale Duplications in Multiple M. tuberculosis Lineages Overlapping the Same Genomic Region
Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of most human tuberculosis, infects one third of the world's population and kills an estimated 1.7 million people a year. With the world-wide emergence of drug resistance, and the finding of more functional genetic diversity than previously expect...
