Clinical Antibiotic-Resistance Plasmids Have Small Effects on Biofilm Formation and Population Growth in <i>Escherichia coli</i> in vitro
2023-03-01
Abstract excerpt
Antimicrobial resistance (AR) mechanisms encoded on plasmids can affect other phenotypic traits in bacteria, including biofilm formation. These effects may be important contributors to the spread of AR and the evolutionary success of plasmids, but it is not yet clear how common such effects are for clinical plasmids/bacteria, and how they vary among different plasmids and host strains. Here, we used a combinatoria...
