Diagram depicting Rv0071/74-9 m. a Organization of the fusion gene Rv0071/74 generated by the deletion of RD105 in Beijing clinical strains. The 1032 bp gene includes the 1–84 bp region from Rv0071 and the 288–1236 bp region from Rv0074. Variable 9-bp sequence repeats (microsatellites) are located at the 5′end of Rv0071/74. b Polymorphism distribution of 9-bp sequence repeats site in the tested Beijing clinical strains. Since reference strain H37Rv contains 5 of 9-bp sequence repeats, 5 m (motif) is used as an initial point
