Many antibiotic resistance genes are associated with plasmids. The ecological success of
these mobile genetic elements within microbial communities depends on varying …

Background Antibiotic resistance represents a significant public health problem. When
resistance genes are mobile, being carried on plasmids or phages, their spread can be …

With plasmid-mediated antibiotic resistance thriving and threatening to become a serious
public health problem, it is paramount to increase our understanding of the forces that …

Abstract The World Health Organization has declared the emergence of antibiotic resistance
to be a global threat to human health. Broad-host-range plasmids have a key role in causing …

Antibiotic resistance consists of a dynamic web. In this review, we describe the path by
which different antibiotic residues and antibiotic resistance genes disseminate among …

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in bacteria is a major public health threat and conjugative
plasmids play a key role in the dissemination of AMR genes among bacterial pathogens …

Bacterial plasmids harboring antibiotic resistance genes are critical in the spread of
antibiotic resistance. It is known that plasmids differ in their kinetic values, ie, conjugation …

Microorganisms endure novel challenges for which other microorganisms in other biomes
may have already evolved solutions. This is the case of nosocomial bacteria under antibiotic …

Multidrug resistant bacterial pathogens have become a serious global human health threat,
and conjugative plasmids are important drivers of the rapid spread of resistance to last …
