MTBC isolates previously identified as L1 and L3, either by SNP-typing or spoligotyping, were grown in Middlebrook 7H9 liquid medium supplemented with ADC and incubated at 37°C. Purified genomic DNA was obtained from cultures using a CTAB extraction method (
Belisle & Sonnenberg, 1998 (

Nextera ® XT library and NEBNext ®
Ultra TM II FS DNA Library Prep Kits. Sequencing was performed using the Illumina
HiSeq 2500 or
NextSeq 500 paired-end technology.
The sequence data generated by this study has been deposited on SRA under the accession number PRJNA670836.
