Impact of Antibiotic Use on the Evolution ofEnterococcus faecium

15 Dec 2015

Abstract excerpt

(See the major article by Montealegre, Singh, and Murray on pages 1914–22.) Enterococci are commensals of the gastrointestinal tracts (GITs) of animals, from simple invertebrates to humans, and likely evolved early in a primitive GIT-type environment [ 1–3 ]. This presumption is supported by their ubiquity and their streamlined genomes (an indicator of host adaptation, which results in a number of nutritional...
