Abstract

Whole-genome sequencing has resulted in new insights into the phylogeography of Mycobacterium tuberculosis . However, only limited genomic data are available from M. tuberculosis strains in Guatemala. Here we report 16 complete genomes of clinical strains belonging to the Euro-American lineage 4, the most common lineage found in Guatemala and Central America.
