Predicting the evolution of antibiotic resistance
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Mutations causing antibiotic resistance are often associated with a cost in the absence of antibiotics. Surprisingly, a new study found that bacteria adapting to increased temperature became resistant to rifampicin. By studying the consequences of the involved mu...
