The emergence of extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB) presents a considerable challenge and a public health concern due to the high mortality rate of this disease. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of XDR-TB isolates is thus essential for understanding the mechanism of drug resistance. Here we report whole-genome sequences of two XDR-TB strains of two lineages from India.
广泛耐药结核病(XDR-TB)的出现带来了巨大挑战,因其高死亡率而成为公共卫生问题。因此,对XDR-TB分离株进行全基因组测序对于了解耐药机制至关重要。在此,我们报告了来自印度的两个谱系的两株XDR-TB菌株的全基因组序列。
