A) Spoligotyping hybridization profiles of H37Rv and BCG reference strains, Mycobacterium tuberculosis SIT266 (2 strains in this study) and SIT264 (previously published strain in [3]). SIT, spoligotype international type, designated according to SITVIT_WEB database (http://www.pasteur-guadeloupe.fr:8081/SITVIT_ONLINE). B) Schematic view of the DR/CRISPR locus (region of spacers 7–9) in spoligotypes SIT264 and SIT266 and reference strain H37Rv, inferred from next-generation sequencing data. Reverse DRa primer is biotin-labeled. IS6110 is not to scale.
