Interspecific competition can drive plasmid loss from a focal species in a microbial community

Plasmids are key disseminators of antimicrobial resistance genes and virulence factors, and it is therefore critical to predict and reduce plasmid spread within microbial communities. The cost of plasmid carriage is a key metric that can be used to predict plasmids’ ecological fate, and it is unclea...
