<i>De novo</i> acquisition of antibiotic resistance in six species of bacteria
2024-07-04
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Bacteria can become resistant to antibiotics in two ways, by acquiring resistance genes through horizontal gene transfer and by de novo development of resistance upon exposure to non-lethal concentrations. The importance of the second process, de novo build-up, has not been investigated systematically over a range of species and may be underestimated as a result. To investigate the DNA mutatio...
