Projected impacts of climate change on salmon habitat restoration.

abstract：:Acyl-homoserine lactone (acyl-HSL) signaling is thought to mediate quorum sensing in many species of Proteobacteria. The opportunistic human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa uses acyl-HSLs to regulate hundreds of genes, including many that code for extracellular virulence factors. The idea that the P. aeruginosa acyl-H...
