Plasmid-mediated phenotypic noise leads to transient antibiotic resistance in bacteria

Abstract The rise of antibiotic resistance is a critical public health concern, requiring an understanding of mechanisms that enable bacteria to tolerate antimicrobial agents. Bacteria use diverse strategies, including the amplification of drug-resistance genes. In this paper, we showed that multico...
