Deskripsi

Mycobacterium abscessus is an emerging infection that usually affects patients with structural lung diseases such as cystic fibrosis (CF). Here, the authors use phylogenetic analyses to demonstrate close relationships between isolates from CF and non-CF patients and identify antibiotic resistance markers.
