Someone told me that evolution of antibiotic resistant bacteria is non existent. Antibiotics resistance would be already available in the pool of bacteria. Bij adding antibiotics only the resistant ones would be able to survive and reproduce. The only way to refute this argument is imo to start with a single bacterium and look for surviving ofspring in a selective environment. Has this ever been observed and is there any information about this subject ?
