© 2019 Elsevier B.V. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data allow for an inference of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) clusters by using a pairwise genetic distance of ≤12 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) as a threshold. However, a problem of discrepancies in numbers of SNPs and genetic distance m...
