Metabolic genes on conjugative plasmids are highly prevalent in Escherichia coli and can protect against antibiotic treatment

Conjugative plasmids often encode antibiotic resistance genes that provide selective advantages to their bacterial hosts during antibiotic treatment. Previous studies have predominantly considered these established genes as the primary benefit of antibiotic-mediated plasmid dissemination. However, m...
