Modeling bacterial quorum sensing in open and closed environments: potential discrepancies between agar plate and culture flask experiments.

Abstract excerpt

Quorum sensing (QS) is a process of bacterial communication and cooperation mediated by the release of jointly exploited signals and "public goods" into the environment. There are conflicting reports on the behavior of mutants deficient in the release of these materials. Namely, mutants that appe...
