Emergence of Spatial Structure in Cell Groups and the Evolution of Cooperation (2010, background): “In nature, the expression of many social phenotypes is adjusted in response to environmental cues [48–50].”
Application of Probiotics in Shrimp Aquaculture: Importance, Mechanisms of Action, and Methods of Administration (2016, background): “Waters and Bassler (2005) and Kumar et al. (2014) illustrated that QS is a process of bacterial cell-to-cell communication.”
Quorum Sensing and Bacterial Social Interactions in Biofilms (2012, background): “In addition to the above quorum-sensing mechanisms, another type of quorum sensing, called autoinducer 2 (AI-2), has been described in both Gram-negative and Gram-positive organisms [7,8,11].”
Meso-scale turbulence in living fluids (2012, background): “The swarming (S) and laning (L) phases adjoin a so-called active bionematic (18) phase (B), where vortices and extended jet-like structures coexist (28, 45); this phase is characterized by large fluctuations of the local vortex density.”
Biofilm Formation in Food Processing Environments is Still Poorly Understood and Controlled (2014, background): “In 1986 Wanner and Gujer (1986) proposed, for the first time, an analytical mathematical model of microbial interaction in biofilms predicting changes in biofilm thickness and describing the dynamics and spatial distribution of microbial species and substrates in the biofilm.”

Top 10 plant pathogenic bacteria in molecular plant pathology. (2012, background): “Density-dependent control of virulence factors, modulated by freely diffusible N-acyl homoserine lactone intercellular signalling molecules, is now a well-established trait of various plant and animal pathogens (Waters and Bassler, 2005).”
The threat of antimicrobial resistance in developing countries: causes and control strategies (2017, background): “Hence, this strategy should generate a lower selective pressure and reduce the rate at which AMR develops during the treatment [55].”
Bacterial Extracellular Polysaccharides Involved in Biofilm Formation (2009, background): “Due to its complexity, the formation of biofilms is regulated at different stages via diverse mechanisms [20,21].”
