Sensitivity of the IME strain to various antibiotics. a IME and control strains showed no growth differences in the absence of antibiotics. The IME strain had increased sensitivity to b chloramphenicol; c erythromycin; d spectinomycin; e tetracycline; f streptomycin; g rifamycin; h sulfadiazine; i combination of sulfamethoxazole (SMZ) and trimethoprim (TMP); j polymyxin B; k carbenicillin; l meropenem. Growth curves were recorded in MOPS + 2% glucose medium with different antibiotics in a clear bottom 96-well plate at 37 °C, initial pH 7.0. Error bars indicate standard deviation of at least three biological replicates
