Towards a better understanding of the long-lasting evolutionary history of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Résumé

The daily increasing sequencing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis has made it possible to establish an advanced phylogeny of this bacterium. It currently includes 9 lineages mainly affecting humans, completed by animal lineages, which form the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. Inherited from various historical approaches, this phylogeny is now based on Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs), of which updates are frequently proposed. We present here evidence that the task needs refinements: some lineages have currently suboptimal defining SNPs, and many sublineages still need to be named and characterized. These findings are based on a new tool specifically designed to index the entire existing sequencing data. In this article, we focus on lineages 4.5, 4.7, 6 and 7. We take the opportunity to present some evidence that TB-annotator shows strong relevance, identifying well supported sublineages, as well as good global agreement with previous findings.
