The Role of Antibiotic Resistance Genes in the Fitness Cost of Multiresistance Plasmids

By providing the bacterial cell with protection against several antibiotics at once, multiresistance plasmids have an evolutionary advantage in situations where antibiotic treatments are common, such as in hospital environments. However, resistance plasmids can also impose fitness costs on the bacte...
