Abstract
Using 894 phylogenetically diverse genomes of the; Mycobacterium tuberculosis; complex (MTBC), we simulated; in silico; the ability of the Hain Lifescience GenoType MTBC assay to differentiate the causative agents of tuberculosis. Here, we propose a revised interpretation of this assay to reflect its strengths (e.g., it can distinguish some strains of; Mycobacterium canettii; and variants of; Mycobacterium bovis; that are not intrinsically resistant to pyrazinamide) and limitations (e.g.,; Mycobacterium orygis; cannot be differentiated from; Mycobacterium africanum; ).
