EGAD00001008400	116 Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) samples from the TB-DAR study, based on a cohort of adult pulmonary tuberculosis patients recruited in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. WGS was performed at the Health2030 Genome Center in Geneva on the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 instrument (Illumina Inc, San Diego CA, USA), starting from1μg of whole blood genomic DNA and using Illumina TruSeq DNA PCR-Free reagents for library preparation and the 150nt paired-end sequencing configuration. Average coverage was above 30X for 75 samples, between 10X and 30Xfor 40 samples, and approximately 8X for a single sample. Sequencing reads were aligned to the GRCh38 (GCA_000001405.15) reference genome using bwa (Version 0.7.17).	Illumina NovaSeq 6000	116
