Survival of hypoxia-induced dormancy is not a common feature of all strains of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex

Abstract While persistence in a dormant state is crucial for the life cycle of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, no investigation regarding dormancy survival of different strains across different lineages was performed so far. We analyzed responses to oxygen starvation and recovery in terms of growth, met...
