Pathogen invasion-dependent tissue reservoirs and plasmid-encoded antibiotic degradation boost plasmid spread in the gut
In particular, this should pertain to plasmid-encoded resistance genes encoding enzymes degrading antibiotics with an extra-cytoplasmic target (e.g. beta-lactamases). Extended spectrum beta-lactamases ...

Temperature and Nutrient Limitations Decrease Transfer of Conjugative IncP-1 Plasmid pKJK5 to Wild Escherichia coli Strains
Plasmid-mediated dissemination of antibiotic resistance among fecal Enterobacteriaceae in natural ecosystems may contribute to the persistence of antibiotic resistance genes in anthropogenically ...
