The first-of-its-kind in-depth bacterial evolutionary map could pave the way for the development of precision treatments for ...

Certain antibiotic-resistant infections could be treated with precision medicine in the future, thanks to a new resource mapping plasmids the ultimate vehicle of rapid bacterial evolution.

A drug-resistant strain of A. baumannii is spreading in a Malaysian hospital, posing a global health threat due to its ...

It is this competition that leads to genetic adaptation, such as antibiotic resistance, which will help them survive in ...

Plasmids often carry genes for virulence, survival, or antibiotic resistance, improving the bacterium's fitness. Multiple plasmids are often found in bacterial cells, and due to their complex ...
