Growth-Dependent Predation and Generalized Transduction of Antimicrobial Resistance by Bacteriophage

Growth-Dependent Predation and Generalized Transduction of Antimicrobial Resistance by Bacteriophage

ABSTRACT Bacteriophage (phage) are both predators and evolutionary drivers for bacteria, notably contributing to the spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes by generalized transduction. Our current understanding of this complex relationship is limited. We used an interdisciplinary approach to...
