Evolutionary analysis of Mycobacterium bovis genotypes across Africa suggests co-evolution with livestock and humans.
Mycobacterium bovis is the pathogenic agent responsible for bovine tuberculosis (bTB), a zoonotic disease affecting mostly cattle, but also transmittable to humans and wildlife. Genetic studies on M. bovis allow to detect possible routes of bTB transmission and the identification of genetic reservoi...
