Biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) encoding the production of bacteriocins are widespread among bacterial isolates and are important genetic determinants of competitive fitness within a given habitat. Staphylococci produce a tremendous diversity of compounds, and the corresponding BGCs are frequen...

Iron is an essential element for several cellular processes and recent evidence highlighted its role in regulating the function of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). When in excess it reduces quiescence and self-renewal, however, whether and how iron influences HSC metabolism is still unknown. Here, w...

Synonymous mutations do not change the sequence of the polypeptide but they may still influence fitness. We investigated in Salmonella enterica how four synonymous mutations in the rpsT gene (encoding ribosomal protein S20) reduce fitness (i.e. growth rate) and the mechanisms by which this cost can...

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a threat to global health and the economy. Rifampicin resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis accounts for a third of the global AMR burden. Gaining the upper hand on AMR requires a deeper understanding of the physiology of resistance. AMR often results in the eros...

Fitness effects for Ace insecticide resistance mutations are determined by ambient temperature
RNA m6A methylation suppresses insect juvenile hormone degradation to minimize fitness costs in response to a pathogenic attack
Bioinsecticides and transgenic crops based on the bacterial pathogen Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) can effectively control diverse agricultural insect pests, nevertheless, insect resistance evolution without causing obvious fitness costs has seriously eroded the sustainable use of these Bt products. R...

In vitro studies have described metronidazole (MTZ) resistance and the potential mechanisms involved. Costs to fitness and adaptive responses associated with resistance, however, have not been investigated. In this study we generated an HM-1-derived strain resistant to 12 µM MTZ (MTZR). We examined ...

Antifungal resistance, particularly the rise in multidrug resistance, has become a critical public health concern, garnering substantial attention. In this study, we used experimental evolution with Neurospora crassa as a model and identified a novel multidrug-resistance gene, msp-8, which encodes a...
