Many antibiotic resistance mutations arise in pathogenic bacteria that harbor plasmids (R-plasmids). Resistance to third generation cephalosporins, for instance, largely occurs by one or more point mutations in plasmid bla genes that expand the resistance spectrum of beta-lactamases. Here I review r
Tagging of an inoculum with marker genes provides a means to monitor the inoculum in the environment in the presence of natural bacteria. In this work a Pseudomonas fluorescens strain originating from the rhizosphere of birch (Betula pendula) was chromosomally tagged with a single copy of a mer-luc
