The tuba is essential to wind bands (concert band, symphonic band, wind ensemble, brass band).
It is also used in various kinds of folk music groups, such as dixieland bands, polka bands, and the Mexican banda. This influence has led to the occasional use of the tuba in popular music, partly because its distinctive sound immediately calls these folk styles to mind. For example, tuba can be heard sometimes in Mexican and Tex-Mex pop music, where it seems to give the music a more old-fashioned, down-home sound. In Country Music, Dwight Yoakam (who often does odd, interesting things) recorded the title track of Population: Me with a tuba as the bass, in the style of a New Orleans dixieland funeral march.
The tuba was also used regularly in early jazz and pop recordings, since its sound was easier to pick up on the primitive recording equipment of the day, compared to the sound of the string bass. This led to the name "recording bass" for a tuba with a forward-facing bell; the sousaphone was often used in recording for the same reason.
For the reason just mentioned, as well as its roots in dixieland, jazz has used the tuba off and on over the years. Some jazz charts include a tuba part that serves as a 5th trombone part, others have a bass part that indicates tuba as an option instead of string bass.
Many tuba players play acoustic and/or electric bass, and I've known several (myself included) who play bass in jazz groups. As a rule of thumb, if the bass part is written in the older "two-beat" style (two notes per measure, in the "oompah" style of a march), I might use tuba just for fun instead of string bass. The song "All that jazz", for example, was written in the 1970s, but it's in a campy retro style that just begs for tuba in my opinion.

Tuba transposition involves playing music written in a different key than the one the tuba is tuned to.
