Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex spoligotypes and number of isolates (in brackets) in 121 harvested wild boars in eight harvesting seasons starting in the period 2004-05 (4th) and ending in 2011–12 (11th). Asterisks indicate those harvesting seasons in which TB-infected cattle were present in TBA. In bold, TB spoligotypes also isolated from cattle in the respective season.
