*MIRU, mycobacterial interspersed repetitive unit; Se, sensitivity; Sp, specificity; CAS, Central Asian; EAI, East African–Indian; MAF, M. africanum; MBOV, M. bovis; LAM, Latin American. The X, T, LAM, S, and Haarlem families are European American types. Any means any family or subfamily. Only strains with no secondary assignations to spoligotype groups were used for calculating associations.
†Due to a small number of isolates in these families, Se and Sp values are calculated for illustrative purposes only.
