Relay Architectures and Ecological Strategies of Quorum Sensing Effects on Microbial Interactions
Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 10, October 2026.Quorum‐sensing activity in one population affects neighbouring populations through direct signal perception, QS‐regulated chemical effectors, or host‐ or environment‐mediated relays. Across distinct habitats, these relay architectures are associated with ecological strategies ranging from shared signal accessibility and reciprocal responsiveness to ...

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 5, September/October 2026.ABSTRACT Using Cyanobacteria as chassis strains can harness sunlight as an energy source for biotechnology. Their phototrophic lifestyle requires balancing energy assimilation (source) with nutrient assimilation and biomass formation (sink). It is hypothesized that extra carbon and/or electron sinks can increase photosynthetic efficiency, allowing ...
