Quorum Sensing and Antimicrobial Production Orchestrate Biofilm Dynamics in Multispecies Bacterial Communities
ABSTRACT Microbial interactions are often mediated by diffusible small molecules, including secondary metabolites, that play roles in cell-to-cell signaling and inhibition of competitors. Biofilms are often “hot spots” for high concentrations of bacteria and their secondary metabolites, which make t...
