Ecological and genetic determinants of plasmid distribution in Escherichia coli.

Environmental microbiology - 1 Nov 2016

Medaney Frances, Ellis Richard J, Raymond Ben

Abstract excerpt

Bacterial plasmids are important carriers of virulence and antibiotic resistance genes. Nevertheless, little is known of the determinants of plasmid distribution in bacterial populations. Here the factors affecting the diversity and distribution of the large plasmids of Escherichia coli were explored in cattle grazing on semi-natural grassland, a set of populations with low frequencies of antibiotic resistance...
