Quorum sensing triggers the stochastic escape of individual cells from Pseudomonas putida biofilms
2015
Bacteria secrete signalling molecules (AHLs) to coordinate actions such as biofilm formation and the release of public goods, in a process called quorum sensing. Here, the authors show that AHLs are stochastically produced and control asocial (self-directed) traits in young biofilms of P. putida.
