Quorum sensing mediates morphology and motility transitions in the model archaeon Haloferax volcanii

ABSTRACT Quorum sensing (QS) is a population density-dependent mechanism of intercellular communication, whereby microbes secrete and detect signals to regulate behaviors such as virulence and biofilm formation. Although QS is well-studied in bacteria, little is known about cell-cell communication i...
