Conjugation Inhibitors Effectively Prevent Plasmid Transmission in Natural Environments
ABSTRACT Plasmid conjugation is a major route for the spread of antibiotic resistance genes. Inhibiting conjugation has been proposed as a feasible strategy to stop or delay the propagation of antibiotic resistance genes. Several compounds have been shown to be conjugation inhibitors in vitro, speci...
