Abstract:Horizontal gene transfer by plasmids can confer metabolic capabilities that expand a host cell’s niche. Yet, it is less understood whether the coalescence of specialized catabolic functions, antibiotic resistances and metal resistances on plasmids provides synergistic benefits. In this study, we report whole-genome assembly and phenotypic analysis of five
