The Impact of Mercury Selection and Conjugative Genetic Elements on Community Structure and Resistance Gene Transfer
Carriage of resistance genes can underpin bacterial survival, and by spreading these genes between species, mobile genetic elements (MGEs) can potentially protect diversity within microbial communities. The spread of MGEs could be affected by environmental factors such as selection for resistance, a...
