Tuberculosis (Edinb)
. 2014 Jun;
94(4):441-50.
PMID: 24882682
Despite sharing >99.9% genome sequence similarity at the nucleotide level, Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis-the causative agents of human and bovine tuberculosis, respectively-exhibit distinct host preferences. M. bovis can cause...
