Efflux pump activation confers mupirocin resistance and enhances rhizosphere fitness in <i>Pseudomonas</i>
. These findings fill a critical gap in understanding non-target-based mupirocin resistance, clarify the ecological drivers of antimicrobial resistance, and offer practical insight for improving mupirocin application to limit the emergence and spread of resistant pathogens.
