a

MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration that inhibits the growth of bacteria by ≥ 90%) measurements were performed according to the EUCAST guidelines in 3 independent measurements.

b

E. coli strain with mutated efflux pump.

c

E. coli strain with loss-of-function mutation in the gene involved in the cell wall formation.
