Environmental variation alters the fitness effects of rifampicin resistance mutations in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
The fitness effects of antibiotic resistance mutations in antibiotic-free conditions play a key role in determining the long-term maintenance of resistance. Although resistance is usually associated with a cost, the impact of environmental variation on the cost of resistance is poorly understood. He...
