Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the environment pose significant public health concerns and are influenced by conditions like temperature changes. We previously observed that resistance evolution to gentamicin and colistin affects optimal growth temperatures in Staphylococcus epidermidis isolates. Despite significant phenotype observations, the genetic basis remains unclear. We aim to identify the...
