Marked Microevolution of a Unique Mycobacterium tuberculosis Strain in 17 Years of Ongoing Transmission in a High Risk Population

The transmission and persistence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis within high risk populations is a threat to tuberculosis (TB) control. In the current study, we used whole genome sequencing (WGS) to decipher the transmission dynamics and microevolution of M. tuberculosis ON-A, an endemic strain respon...
