Adaptation of genetically monomorphic bacteria : evolution of copper resistance through multiple horizontal gene transfers of complex and versatile mobile genetic elements

Copper-based antimicrobial compounds are widely used to control plant bacterial pathogens. Pathogens have adapted in response to this selective pressure. Xanthomonas citri pv. citri, a major citrus pathogen causing Asiatic citrus canker, was first reported to carry plasmid-encoded copper resistance...
