LUXT CONTROLS SPECIFIC QUORUM-SENSING-REGULATED BEHAVIORS IN VIBRIONACEAE SPP. VIA REPRESSION OF QRR1, ENCODING A SMALL REGULATORY RNA.

LuxT controls specific quorum-sensing-regulated behaviors in Vibrionaceae spp. via repression of qrr1, encoding a small regulatory RNA.

Quorum sensing (QS) is a process of chemical communication bacteria use to transition between individual and collective behaviors.QS depends on the production, release, and synchronous response to signaling molecules called autoinducers (AIs).The marine bacterium Vibrio harveyi monitors AIs using a signal transduction pathway that relies on five sm

The contingency of unequal power relations in marriage

In the traditional marriage there is an unequal power relationship between the spouses.The husband is in the dominant role and his wife is subordinate to him.Presumably this state of affairs would be justified if a relevant universal difference could be found between men and women such as would entail male domination.Can such a difference be found?

Salix purpurea and Eleocharis obtusa Rhizospheres Harbor a Diverse Rhizospheric Bacterial Community Characterized by Hydrocarbons Degradation Potentials and Plant Growth-Promoting Properties

7RR MAX Phytoremediation, a method of phytomanagement using the plant holobiont to clean up polluted soils, is particularly effective for degrading organic pollutants.However, the respective contributions of host plants and their associated microbiota within the holobiont to the efficiency of phytoremediation is poorly understood.The identification
