Abstract excerpt
The incidence of beta-lactam resistance among clinical isolates is a major health concern. A key method to study the emergence of antibiotic resistance is adaptive laboratory evolution. However, in the case of the beta-lactam ampicillin, bacteria evolved in laboratory settings do not recapitulate clinical-like resistance levels, hindering efforts to identify major evolutionary paths and their dependency on...
