Timing of antibiotic administration determines the spread of plasmid-encoded antibiotic resistance during microbial range expansion

Plasmids are the main vector by which antibiotic resistance is transferred between bacterial cells within surface-associated communities. In this study, we ask whether there is an optimal time to administer antibiotics to minimize plasmid spread in new bacterial genotypes during community expansion...
