Add to ORKGTuberculosis (TB) remains a serious public health threat worldwide. Theoretically ultimate resolution of whole genome sequencing (WGS) for Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) strain classification makes this technology very attractive for epidemiological investigations. To summarise the evidence available in peer-reviewed publications on the role and place of WGS in detection of TB transmission. 69 peer-reviewed publications identified in Pubmed database. Evidence from >30 publications suggests that a cut-off value of <6 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) between strains efficiently excludes cases that are not the result of recent transmission and could be used for the identification of drug-sensitive isolates involved in direct h...
