Abstract
Background Diverse bacterial group behaviors are controlled by quorum sensing, a regulatory network of bacterial gene expression based on cell density, and involving communication through chemical signal molecules called autoinducers. Multidisciplinary research in toxigenic Vibrio cholerae the etiologic agent of cholera, appear to suggest group behavior in the ecology, epidemiology, pathogenesis and transmission of the pathogen. This review summarizes latest...
