Microbial EcologyA Global Survey of Mycobacterial Diversity in SoilMycobacteria are common inhabitants of soil, and while most members of this bacterial group are innocuous, some mycobacteria can cause environmentally acquired infections of humans and other animals. Human infections from nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are increasingly prevalent worldwide, and some areas appear to be “hotspots” for NTM disease. While exposure to soil is frequently implicated as an important mode of NTM transmission,...
