Costs of antibiotic resistance genes depend on host strain and environment and can influence community composition
2023-09-11
Abstract excerpt
Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) is a major contributor to increasing levels of antibiotic resistance in clinical and agricultural settings. ARGs are strongly selected in environments containing corresponding antibiotics, but it is less clear how ARGs are maintained in environments where antibiotic selection might be weak or sporadic. In particular, few studies have directly estimated the effect of ARGs on host...
