Substance and energy metabolism are the basis for all life activities and are largely
regulated by cell-to-cell communication. Microbial cell-to-cell communication often occurs by …

Quorum sensing (QS), which is a key part of cell/cell communication, is widely distributed in
microorganisms, especially in bacteria. Bacteria can produce and detect the presence of QS …

Acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs)-mediated quorum sensing in bacterial communities have
been extensively observed. However, the metabolic pathways regulated by AHLs in bacteria …

Bacterial quorum sensing (QS)-dependent gene expression is a dynamic response to cell
density. Bacteria produce costly public goods for the benefit of the population as a whole. As …

Bacteria release and sense small molecules called autoinducers in a process known as
quorum sensing. The prevailing interpretation of quorum sensing is that by sensing …

Burkholderia glumae PG1 is a soil-associated motile plant-pathogenic bacterium
possessing a cell density-dependent regulation system called quorum sensing (QS). Its …

Bacterial degradation is one of the most efficient ways to remove microcystins (MCs), the
most frequently detected toxin in cyanobacterial blooms. Using Novosphingobium sp …

Cell-cell communication, also termed quorum sensing (QS), is a widespread process that
coordinates gene expression in bacterial populations. The generally accepted view is that …

Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) are one of the main protagonist groups of biocorrosion in
the seawater environment. Given their principal role in biocorrosion, it remains a crucial task …

The alphaproteobacterium Sinorhizobium fredii NGR234 has an exceptionally wide host
range, as it forms nitrogen-fixing nodules with more legumes than any other known …
