Abstract

An earlier perspective on the diversity of conjugative elements in microbes [1] attempted to provide a broad audience with an introductory overview of the arcane biology of mobile genetic elements and their terminologies. It might well have been entitled "Plasmids, ICEs, IMEs, and Other Mobile Elements for Dummies," but common sense prevailed. This perspective introduces two related articles in the current issue of PLOS Genetics [2,3] and might have equally aptly been entitled "Antibiotic-Resistant Plasmids and Their Epidemiology for Dummies."
