The association between the genetic structures of commonly incompatible plasmids in Gram-negative bacteria, their distribution and the resistance genes

Incompatible plasmids play a crucial role in the horizontal transfer of antibiotic resistance in bacteria, particularly in Gram-negative bacteria, and have thus attracted considerable attention in the field of microbiological research. In the 1970s, these plasmids, housing an array of resistance gen...
