In this figure you can see a phylogenetic tree of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the
causative agent of tuberculosis (TB) and a few related mycobacteria. (You may or may
not have seen this figure in a previous question in this exam.) In the tree, the M.
tuberculosis lineages that are currently circulating in humans are indicated in color
and are named L1 to L7. The pie charts on the world map indicate for each of these
lineages where they occur. In the phylogenetic tree, names of Mycobacterium (M.)
strains derived from non-human animals and from an ancient Peruvian mummy are
written in full and are not colored.
Which of the following statements is correct?
The L4 lineage is more closely related to the L3 lineage than to the L2 lineage
Human M. tuberculosis lineages form a monophyletic group of which all
members only infect humans
Mycobacterium strains found in non-human animals form a monophyletic group
of which all members only infect non-human animals
M. tuberculosis is paraphyletic in humans
