Human TB | Animal TB or zoonotic transmission of TB |
Whole genome sequencing of at least three M. tuberculosis isolates from distinct people | Less than three isolates from distinct people sequenced and studies designed to investigate isolates from less than three possibly epidemiologically-linked people |
Clustering analysis based on 12 or less SNP rule for clustering or possibility to identify clusters of 12 or less SNP of difference | Lack of clustering analysis or clustering analysis based on strains differing by more than 12 SNP, impossible to impose 12 or less rule for clustering |
Cluster after sequencing containing three or more isolates | Largest cluster after sequencing containing less than three isolates or impossible to determine clusters of three and more isolates |
