Enhanced Survival of Rifampin- and Streptomycin-Resistant Escherichia coli Inside Macrophages
The evolution of multiple-antibiotic-resistant bacteria is an increasing global problem. Even though mutations causing resistance usually incur a fitness cost in the absence of antibiotics, the magnitude of such costs varies across environments and genomic backgrounds. We studied how the combination...
