Growth of the susceptible and the isogenic resistant bacteria in the sub-MIC selective window and traditional MSW (modified from Gullberg et al., 2011). For antibiotic concentrations lower than MSC, the susceptible strain (green line) will outcompete the resistant strain (orange line). However, for the antibiotic concentrations between sub-MIC selective window and traditional mutant selective window, the resistant strain will outcompete the susceptible strain.
