Characteristics of two transferable aminoglycoside resistance plasmids in

Abstract
pRKZ3 is a non-conjugative IncQ plasmid, while pKANJ7 is a conjugative IncX plasmid. The optimal mating time of pKANJ7 varied under different conditions. Both of the two transferable ARPs had little impact on the growth of their hosts. A relatively high level of fitness cost was observed for pKANJ7. The fitness cost of ARPs depended on their hosts.
