53 Summary genes captured from various species mobile resistance genes each resistance gene usually associated with one particular mobile element (at least initially), which often provides a promoter mobile elements and associated resistance genes often cluster together in large, complex multi-resistance regions on plasmids evolution of multi-resistance regions and movement of resistance genes by actions of mobile elements + homologous recombination need to understand what is spreading single resistance gene, set of resistance genes, whole plasmid, strain?
