Whole-genome sequencing of <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> sublineage L1.1.1.7 from Chiangrai, Thailand
<i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> (MTB) presents a global health issue. Various genotypes of MTB have different geographic distributions. The majority of MTB in Thailand belong to lineages 1 and 2. Here, we report the complete genomic sequences of MTB sublineage L1.1.1.7, which is common in Thailand and infrequently identified in other countries.
