Hidden antibiotic resistance fitness costs revealed by GWAS-based epistasis analysis

2017-06-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Understanding how multi-drug resistant pathogens evolve is key to identifying means of curtailing their further emergence and dissemination. Fitness costs imposed on bacteria by resistance mechanisms are believed to hamper their dissemination in an antibiotic free environment, however, some have been reported to have little or no cost, which suggests there are few barriers preventing their globa...
