Phage predation accelerates the spread of plasmid-encoded antibiotic resistance

2024-02-27

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>The use of predatory phage to control microbial proliferation is generally assumed to not contribute to the spread of antibiotic resistance. However, this assumption does not consider the effect of phage predation on the spatial organization of different microbial populations. Here, we show that phage predation can increase the spread of plasmid-encoded antibiotic resistance during surf...
