… Gram-negative bacterium Myxococcus xanthus. This system is quite different from HSL
quorum sensing, and beyond the scope of this review. It is addressed in detail elsewhere 25, 26. …

… Here we consider only Gram-negative bacteria which use N-AHL as a chemical signal.
However, quorum sensing is also characteristic of Gram-positive bacteria [8], and chemical …

… Recent studies have shown that, in some instances, bacteria of different species and bacteria
and host are able to detect and react to each others' chemical signals [3, 41]. For example, …
