M. caprae in northern Italy: a comprehensive analysis through whole-genome sequencing on the genetic variability in bovine herds

Abstract Mycobacterium (M.) bovis and M. caprae are the causative agents of bovine tuberculosis (bTB), which is still a concern due to its health implications and economic impact. Although M. caprae is less prevalent than M. bovis among bovine tuberculosis cases, it has a significant impact on anima...
