We suspect that the same genotypic feature is also responsible for the level of resistance against ceftazidime that is lower than expected in our CTX-M-15 producing strains.
We speculate that this may be an example of evolution of evolvability (Wagner and Altenberg 1996), in which a genotypic feature evolves not due to its functional effect, but due to its effect on the ability of DNA to evolve more quickly.
