Bacterial Quorum Sensing Stabilizes Cooperation by Optimizing Growth Strategies.

Applied and environmental microbiology - 15 Nov 2016

Bruger Eric L, Waters Christopher M

Abstract excerpt

Communication has been suggested as a mechanism to stabilize cooperation. In bacteria, chemical communication, termed quorum sensing (QS), has been hypothesized to fill this role, and extracellular public goods are often induced by QS at high cell densities. Here we show, with the bacterium Vibrio harveyi, that QS provides strong resistance against invasion of a QS defector strain by maximizing the cellular...
