-
↵Previously described in BCG:DS5 corresponds to RD3 in BCG, DS10 to RD13 and DS21 to RD9.
-
↵Different isolates had a deleted sequence in the same deletion loci but with different length: DS6b had a length of 20 bp and DS6c of 3677.
-
↵Another isolate had a deleted sequence in the same deletion loci but with different length: DS7a had a length of 517 bp.
