Phylogenomic analysis of the species of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex demonstrates that Mycobacterium africanum, Mycobacterium bovis, Mycobacterium caprae, Mycobacterium microti and Mycobacterium pinnipedii are later heterotypic synonyms of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2018
The species within the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex (MTBC) have undergone numerous taxonomic and nomenclatural changes, leaving the true structure of the MTBC in doubt. We used next-generation sequencing (NGS), digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH),

Disease management at the wildlife‐livestock interface: Using whole‐genome sequencing to study the role of elk in Mycobacterium bovis transmission in Michigan, USA

Molecular Ecology, 2019
The role of wildlife in the persistence and spread of livestock diseases is difficult to quantify and control. These difficulties are exacerbated when several wildlife species are potentially involved.
