Quorum sensing (QS) describes a process by which bacteria can sense the local cell density
of their own species, thus enabling them to coordinate gene expression and physiological …

Bacteria play a crucial role in marine biogeochemistry by releasing, consuming and
transforming organic matter. Far from being isolated entities, bacteria are involved in …

Coral cover and recruitment have decreased on reefs worldwide due to climate change-
related disturbances. Achieving reliable coral larval settlement under aquaculture conditions …

Stony corals (Scleractinia) are invertebrates that form symbiotic relationships with eukaryotic
algal endosymbionts and the prokaryotic microbiome. The microbiome has the potential to …

Ecological differentiation between strains of bacterial species is shaped by genomic and
metabolic variability. However, connecting genotypes to ecological niches remains a major …

N-Acyl-l-homoserine lactones (AHLs) are a large family of signaling molecules in “quorum
sensing” communication. This mechanism is present in a number of bacterial physiological …

Quorum sensing (QS), a microbial communication mechanism modulated by acyl
homoserine lactone (AHL) molecules impacts biofilm formation in bioreactors. This study …

Quorum sensing (QS) is a density-dependent mechanism enabling bacteria to coordinate
their actions via the release of small diffusible molecules named autoinducers (AIs). Vibrio …

Brown macroalgae are colonized by diverse microorganisms influencing the physiology of
their host. However, cell-cell interactions within the surface microbiome (epimicrobiome) are …

Background Anthropogenic perturbations have strong impact on water quality and
ecological health of mangrove areas of Indian Sundarbans. Diversity in microbial community …
