Quorum sensing in Vibrio controls carbon metabolism to optimize growth in changing environmental conditions.
Bacteria sense population density via the cell-cell communication system called quorum sensing (QS). The evolution of QS and its maintenance or loss in mixed bacterial communities is highly relevant to understanding how cell-cell signaling impacts bacterial fitness and competition, particularly unde...
