Unpredictability of the fitness effects of antimicrobial resistance mutations across environments in <i>Escherichia coli</i>
2023-10-27
Abstract excerpt
The evolution of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in bacteria is a major public health concern. When resistant bacteria are highly prevalent in microbial populations, antibiotic restriction protocols are often implemented to reduce their spread. These measures rely on the existence of deleterious fitness effects (i.e., costs) imposed by AMR mutations during growth in the absence of antibiotics. According to this ass...
