Abstract Multidrug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) epidemics are sustained by transmission of reproductively fit MDR M. tuberculosis (Mtb) strains. We search a large publicly available dataset of ~200,000 Mtb whole genome sequences to identify strains related to a highly successful MDR clade circulating in Moldova belonging to lineage 4.2.1/Ural. We characterize a clade of 1604 drug-resistant Mtb sequences harboring conserved resistance-conferring mutations.
