a

Clinical isolates are indicated by the prefix TN and have the genotyped strain designation in parentheses. 

b

INH, isoniazid; RIF, rifampin; EMB, ethambutol; PZA, pyrazinamide; ETH, ethionamide; CIP, ciprofloxacin; CAP, capreomycin; CYC, cycloserine; S, susceptible; R, resistant; NA, not available. The drug concentrations tested were as described in the text. 

c

The entire rrs gene of H37Rv and the in vitro mutants were sequenced. Only region 1119 to 1536 of the rrs gene of the clinical isolates was sequenced. The numbering of base 1400 refers to M. tuberculosis (11).
