Bacterial cheating drives the population dynamics of cooperative antibiotic resistance plasmids

Inactivation of β-lactam antibiotics by resistant bacteria is a ‘cooperative’ behavior that may allow sensitive bacteria to survive antibiotic treatment. However, the factors that determine the fraction of resistant cells in the bacterial population remain unclear, indicating a fundamental gap in ou...
