Dissecting the molecular evolution of fluoroquinolone-resistant Shigella sonnei

Dissecting the molecular evolution of fluoroquinolone-resistant Shigella sonnei

Shigella sonnei is one of the main species causing shigellosis worldwide. Here the authors analyse nearly 400 S. sonnei genome sequences and carry out experimental evolution experiments to shed light into the evolutionary processes underlying the recent emergence of fluoroquinolone resistance in thi...
