Quorum sensing dynamics in the alpha-proteobacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti at the single-cell and population level

In quorum sensing, bacteria produce and release so-called autoinducers that accumulate in the environment while the cells grow. Once these molecules reach a threshold concentration, they trigger major behavioral changes in the population. Since the triggered behaviors are thought to be effective onl...
