This study shows that IncI1-blaCTX-M-1 plasmids transfer efficiently between chicken and human E. coli but are less stable in human hosts, limiting their spread.

The paper shows that small and large bacterial populations adapt to an antibiotic using different mutation types, with small populations favoring high-rate mutations and large populations favoring low-rate, high-benefit mutations.

The paper introduces a new computational tool for estimating plasmid conjugation rates and compares existing methods, showing biases due to population dynamics and growth differences.

This study investigates how mutation supply and selective pressure affect the repeatability of antibiotic resistance evolution in E. coli using mutant libraries.
