Bioactive Compounds for Quorum Sensing Signal-Response Systems in Marine Phycosphere

Quorum sensing in the phycosphere refers to a sensor system which bacteria secrete bioactive compounds coordinate group behavior relying on cell density. It is an important way for algae and communicate with each other achieve interactions. has been determined that quorum widely presented marine phycosphere, involves variety of compounds. Focused these this review summarizes types structures compounds, describes methods detection functional evaluation, discusses ecological functions regulated by such as modulating microbial colonization, achieving algae–bacteria mutualism or competition contributing biogeochemical cycles. Meanwhile, application prospects are also proposed, including controlling harmful algal blooms producing biofuel. Future research should focus improving techniques, developing more model systems investigating effects climate change quorum-sensing pathway further understand mechanism potential This aims present overview current carried out order provide reader perspective involved sensing.
