Ammonia mediates communication between yeast colonies.

Nature - 4 Dec 1997

Palková Z, Janderová B, Gabriel J, Zikánová B, Pospísek M, Forstová J

Abstract excerpt

Under certain growth conditions unicellular organisms behave as highly organized multicellular structures. For example, the fruiting bodies of myxobacteria and of the slime mould Dictyostelium discoideum form structures composed of non-dividing motile cells. Although non-motile, yeasts can create organized structures, colonies in which cells communicate and act in a coordinated fashion. Colony morphologies are...
