Notes:

Evaluation of resistance deduction from whole-genome sequence data by programs CASTB, PhyResSE, KvarQ, Mykrobe Predictor TB, TBProfiler, and MTBseq, with sensitivity (Sens) and specificity (Spec) estimated with 95% confidence intervals compared to Sanger sequencing results (#R resistant, #S sensitive).

INH, isoniazid; RMP, rifampicin; SM, streptomycin; EMB, ethambutol; PZA, pyrazinamide.
