Expanding Horizons in Phage Therapy: Addressing Antibiotic Resistance in Aquaculture
Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.ABSTRACT Aquaculture has emerged as a cornerstone of global food security, yet its rapid intensification has precipitated widespread bacterial disease outbreaks and escalating antimicrobial resistance (AMR). This review critically examines the limitations of conventional antibiotic use in aquaculture, highlighting regulatory inconsistencies ...

Phage-Encoded LuxR-Type Receptors Responsive to Host-Produced Bacterial Quorum-Sensing Autoinducers
mBio, 2019 Quorum sensing (QS) is a process of cell-to-cell communication that bacteria use to orchestrate collective behaviors. QS relies on the cell-density-dependent production, accumulation, and receptor-mediated detection of extracellular signaling molecules ...

Phytoplankton Tune Local pH to Actively Modulate Circadian Gravitactic Behavior
Advanced Physics Research, Volume 5, Issue 2, February 2026.Diel vertical migration hides an unexpected twist: Phytoplankton quietly engineer their local pH landscape, splitting into behaviorally distinct sub‐groups which stay separated even in identical conditions. Circadian pH changes, occuring over the course of a day, reshape their gravitactic behavior and physiological functions in ways scientists have ...

Quorum sensing in thermophiles: prevalence of autoinducer-2 system [PDF]
BMC Microbiology, 2018 Quorum sensing is a mechanism of cell to cell communication that requires the production and detection of signaling molecules called autoinducers. Although mesophilic bacteria is known to utilize this for synchronization of physiological processes such as bioluminescence, virulence, biofilm formation, motility and cell competency through signaling ...
