a

Mapped reads can be visualized in Fig. S2 in the supplemental material. PAS, para-aminosalicylic acid.

b

Identical by IS6110 barcode: different clinical isolate, same M. tuberculosis strain.

c

Identical by contig-based genotype comparison: different clinical isolate, same M. tuberculosis strain.
