What makes a host profitable? Parasites balance host nutritive resources against immunity [PDF]

, 2008
Numerous host qualities can modulate parasite fitness, and among these, host nutritive resources and immunity are of prime importance. Indeed, parasite fitness increases with the amount of nutritive resources extracted from the host body and decreases ...

An antiplasmid system drives antibiotic resistance gene integration in carbapenemase-producing Escherichia coli lineages

Nature Communications
Plasmids carrying antibiotic resistance genes (ARG) are the main mechanism of resistance dissemination in Enterobacterales. However, the fitness-resistance trade-off may result in their elimination.
