The fitness burden imposed by synthesising quorum sensing signals [PDF]
, 2016 It is now well established that bacterial populations utilize cell-to-cell signaling (quorum-sensing, QS) to control the production of public goods and other co-operative behaviours.

Identifying Cytokine Motif‐Containing, Immunomodulatory Bacterial Proteins in Human Gut Microbiome
Advanced Science, EarlyView.By building and constructing HMM (Upper left, blue), the authors identify CMCPs in bacteria genomes and CRC related metagenomes and enriched CRC‐related CMCPs (Upper right, blue). They analyze sequence and structural similarity of hits (Lower left, green), test function with engineered EcN delivered to tumors in a mouse tumor model (Lower right, pink ...

Black Queen Hypothesis, partial privatization, and quorum sensing evolution
PLoS ONE, 2022 Microorganisms produce costly cooperative goods whose benefit is partially shared with nonproducers, called ‘mixed’ goods. The Black Queen Hypothesis predicts that partial privatization has two major evolutionary implications.
