Main Article

Figure 8

Representation of phylogenetic trees for Mycobacterium tuberculosis genotypic cluster groups A–E (≤5 single-nucleotide polymorphisms) projected onto geographic maps in study of high-resolution geospatial and genomic data to characterize recent tuberculosis transmission, Gaborone, Botswana, 2012–2016. The location of each M. tuberculosis isolate in the tree is displayed with a link drawn to its corresponding geographic location. Tree tips on the same bifurcating branches represent the most closely related isolates.
