| Popis: |
Geographical hotspots with high frequency of multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) have been observed in several locations, such as the country of Georgia. Here, the authors analyse genomic sequences from tuberculosis bacteria isolated from Georgia to show that the transmission fitness of MDR-TB strains is heterogeneous, and highly drug-resistant and transmissible isolates contribute to the emergence and maintenance of MDR-TB hotspots. |
