Use of bacterial whole-genome sequencing to investigate local persistence and spread in bovine tuberculosis
•We performed whole genome sequencing (WGS) of Mycobacterium bovis for a single molecular (VNTR) type.•Under-sampling of one lineage was caused by switching between VNTR-types.•Pairwise SNP distances showed a weak genetic isolation by distance pattern.•Bayesian phylogeographic inference was feasible...
