Lack of AHL-based quorum sensing in Pseudomonas fluorescens isolated from milk

Numerous bacteria coordinate gene expression in response to small signalling molecules in many cases known as acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs), which accumulate as a function of cell density in a process known as quorum sensing. This work aimed to determine if phenotypes that are important to define m...
