Characteristic SNPs defining the major multidrug-resistant < em > Mycobacterium tuberculosis < /em > clusters identified by EuSeqMyTB to support routine surveillance, EU/EEA, 2017 to 2019

ConclusionThe identified SNP signatures can be integrated into routine pipelines and contribute to the more effective monitoring, rapid and widespread screening for TB. This SNP panel will also support accurate communication between laboratories about previously identified internationally transmitted MDR-TB genotypes.PMID:38516788 | DOI:10.2807/1560-7917.ES.2024.29.12.2300583
