Additional file 2: of Mycobacterium tuberculosis causing tuberculous lymphadenitis in Maputo, Mozambique

MST illustrating evolutionary relationships between the M. tuberculosis spoligotypes of this study ( n  = 44 isolates). Additional file 2A was drawn using spoligotyping alone, Additional file 2B was drawn using 24-loci MIRU-VNTR typing alone, and Additional file 2C was drawn using the combination of both spoligotyping and 24-loci MIRU-VNTR.
