Bacteria of the genus Aeromonas display multicellular behaviors herein referred to as
“social life”. Since the 1990s, interest has grown in cell-to-cell communication through …

Many bacteria grow attached to a surface as biofilms. Several factors dictate biofilm
formation, including responses by the colonizing bacteria to their environment. Here we …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram‐negative bacterial species that causes several
opportunistic human infections. This organism is also found in the environment, where it is …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a metabolically versatile environmental bacterium and an
opportunistic human pathogen that relies on numerous signaling pathways to sense …

Recently, we demonstrated that the LuxS-based quorum sensing (QS) system (AI-2)
negatively regulated the virulence of a diarrheal isolate SSU of Aeromonas hydrophila …

In the pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa, LasR is a quorum sensing (QS) master regulator
that senses the concentration of secreted autoinducers as a proxy for bacterial cell density …

Bacteria are social creatures that are able to interact and coordinate behaviors with each
other in a multitude of ways. The study of such group behaviors in microbes was coined …

Background Aeromonas spp. have been regarded as" emerging pathogens". Aeromonads
possess multifactorial virulence and the production of many of these virulence determinants …

The natural life of bacteria involves complex social interactions that can be either
competitive or cooperative. Competition between species is well recognized as a major …

Biofilms in nature typically consist of multiple species, and microbial interactions are likely to
have crucial effects on biofilm development, structure, and functions. The best-understood …
