Abstract
Antibiotic poly-resistance (multidrug-, extreme-, and pan-drug resistance) is controlled by adaptive evolution. Darwinian and Lamarckian interpretations of resistance evolution are discussed. Arguments for, and against, pessimistic forecasts on a fatal “post-antibiotic era” are evaluated. In commensal niches, the appearance of a new antibiotic resistance often reduces fitness, but compensatory mutations may counteract this tendency. The appearance of new antibiotic resistance is frequently accompanied by a collateral sensitivity to other resistances. Organisms with an expanding open pan-genome, such as Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Klebsiella pneumoniae, can withstand an increased number of resistances by exploiting their evolutionary plasticity and disseminating clonally or poly-clonally. Multidrug-resistant pathogen clones can become predominant under antibiotic stress conditions but, under the influence of negative frequency-dependent selection, are prevented from rising to dominance in a population in a commensal niche. Antimicrobial peptides have a great potential to combat multidrug resistance, since antibiotic-resistant bacteria have shown a high frequency of collateral sensitivity to antimicrobial peptides. In addition, the mobility patterns of antibiotic resistance, and antimicrobial peptide resistance, genes are completely different. The integron trade in commensal niches is fortunately limited by the species-specificity of resistance genes. Hence, we theorize that the suggested post-antibiotic era has not yet come, and indeed might never come.

Lyman RF, Mackay TF. Candidate quantitative trait loci and naturally occurring phenotypic variation for bristle number in Drosophila melanogaster: the Delta-Hairless gene region. Genetics 1998; 149:983-98. [PMID: 9611208 PMCID: PMC1460192 DOI: 10.1093/genetics/149.2.983] [Citation(s) in RCA: 52] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Delta (Dl) and Hairless (H) are two chromosome 3 candidate neurogenic loci that might contribute to naturally occurring quantitative variation for sensory bristle number. To evaluate this hypothesis, we assessed quantitative genetic variation in abdominal and sternopleural bristle numbers among homozygous isogenic third chromosomes sampled from nature and substituted into the Samarkand (Sam) inbred chromosome 1 and 2 background; among homozygous lines in which the wild-derived Dl-H gene region was introgressed into the Sam chromosome 3 background; and among Dl-H region introgression lines as heterozygotes against the Sam wild-type strain and derivatives of Sam into which mutant Dl and H alleles had been introgressed. Variation among the Dl-H region introgression lines accounted for 36% (8.3%) of the total chromosome 3 among line variance in abdominal (sternopleural) bristle number and for 53% of the chromosome 3 sex x line variance in abdominal bristle number. Naturally occurring alleles in the Dl-H region failed to complement a Dl mutant allele for female abdominal bristle number and sternopleural bristle number in both sexes, and an H mutant allele for both bristle traits in males and females. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that naturally occurring alleles at Dl and H contribute to quantitative genetic variation in sensory bristle number.
