The evolution of a resistant pathogen--the case of MRSA.

Mark C Enright1.   

Abstract

Recent advances in molecular epidemiological methods have elucidated the evolutionary pathways by which modern methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus have evolved. Only five major lineages of hospital methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus exist, but these are globally distributed and evolving resistance to even the newest antibiotics.
