Selection of Bacterial Mutants in Late Infections: When Vector Transmission Trades Off against Growth Advantage in Stationary Phase

Bacterial infections are often composed of cells with distinct phenotypes that can be produced by genetic or epigenetic mechanisms. This phenotypic heterogeneity has proved to be important in many pathogens, because it can alter both pathogenicity and transmission. We studied how and why it can emer...
