Evolutionary theory of bacterial quorum sensing: when is a signal not a signal?
The term quorum sensing (QS) is used to describe the communication between bacterial cells, whereby a coordinated population response is controlled by diffusible molecules produced by individuals. QS has not only been described between cells of the same species (intraspecies), but also between speci...
