Figure 3. Haplotype networks of the 6 predicted tuberculosis transmission clusters with >4 members from Central West Brazil, 2014–2017. Nodes represent unique haplotypes and are scaled to size. Points along branches indicate single-nucleotide polymorphism distances between isolates. Node color indicates incarceration status at the time of diagnosis. Light gray lines indicate possible alternative links between haplotypes.
