Inferring Mycobacterium bovis transmission between cattle and badgers using isolates from the Randomised Badger Culling Trial

Andries J. van Tonder, Mark Thornton, Andrew J. K. Conlan, Keith A. Jolley, Lee Goolding, A.P. Mitchell, James Dale, Eleftheria Palkopoulou, Philip J. Hogarth, R. Glyn Hewinson, James L. N. Wood, Julian Parkhill

The paper uses whole genome sequences and movement data to infer M. bovis transmission routes between cattle and badgers, finding higher cattle-to-cattle and badger-to-badger transmission rates than between species.
