The attachment and colonization process of microorganisms on a carrier is an
interdisciplinary research field. Through a series of physical, chemical, and biological …

The use of antibiotics to manage infectious diseases dates back to ancient civilization, but
the lack of a clear distinction between the therapeutic and toxic dose has been a major …

Quorum sensing (QS) is a cell–cell communication process that enables bacteria to track
cell population density and orchestrate collective behaviors. QS relies on the production and …

It is well recognized that bacteria communicate via small diffusible molecules, a process
termed quorum sensing. The best understood quorum sensing systems are those that use …

Soil-dwelling bacteria collectively referred to as rhizobia synthesize and perceive N-acyl-
homoserine lactone (AHL) signals to regulate gene expression in a population density …

Many proteobacteria possess LuxR solos which are quorum sensing LuxR-type regulators
that are not paired with a cognate LuxI-type synthase. LuxR solos have been implicated in …

Quorum sensing (QS) is widely accepted as a procedure that bacteria use to converse.
However, prevailing thinking places acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs) at the forefront of this …

Gram-negative bacteria use N-acyl homoserine lactones (acyl-HSLs) for communication,
predominantly mediated by LuxR-type receptors. Recent studies uncovered aryl-HSLs, α …

Rhizospheric microbiome and their metabolites, interact with plants and contribute to plant
health through hormonal modulation, the supply of mineral nutrition, and pathogen …

LuxR solos are related to quorum sensing (QS) LuxR family regulators; however, they lack a
cognate LuxI family protein. LuxR solos are widespread and almost exclusively found in …
