A high-frequency phenotypic switch links bacterial virulence and environmental survival in Acinetobacter baumannii

Antibiotic resistant infections lead to 700,000 deaths per year worldwide(1). The roles of phenotypically diverse subpopulations of clonal bacteria in the progression of diseases are unclear. We found that the increasingly pathogenic and antibiotic resistant pathogen, Acinetobacter baumannii, harbor...
