Mycobacterium tuberculosis Lineage Distribution Using Whole-Genome Sequencing and Bedaquiline, Clofazimine, and Linezolid Phenotypic Profiles among Rifampicin-Resistant Isolates fr... by Andriansjah Rukmana, Cynthia Gozali, Linda Erlina

“…Using Mykrobe and TB-Profiler to determine the lineage distribution, the isolates were found to belong to lineage 4 (Euro-American; 48.33%), lineage 2 (East Asian/Beijing; 46.67%), and lineage 1 (Indo-Oceanic; 5%). This work underlines the requirement to increase the representation of genotype-phenotype TB data while also highlighting the importance and efficacy of WGS in predicting medication resistance and inferring disease transmission.…”
