Heteroresistance in Enterococcus faecalis is prevalent for key antibiotics and mainly caused by mutations

Sheida Heidarian, Sarah Lohsen, Andrei S. Guliaev…·Karin Hjort

This study identifies heteroresistance in Enterococcus faecalis against three antibiotics, showing that it is mainly caused by chromosomal mutations and mobile genetic elements.
