Abstract

Sequences of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains are of particular interest to study the molecular mechanisms of drug resistance evolution. Here, we report the draft genome sequences of 77 endemic multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains of SIT41 (TUR) spoligotype from Bulgaria. SIT41 spoligotype is dominant (>40%) among the MDR-TB strains in Bulgaria.
