Conflict of interest and signal interference lead to the breakdown of honest signalling (2015)
Journal Article
Popat, R., Pollitt, E. J., Harrison, F., Naghra, H., Hong, K. W., Chan, K. G., …Diggle, S. P. (2015). Conflict of interest and signal interference lead to the breakdown of honest signalling. Evolution, 69(9), https://doi.org/10.1111/evo.12751Animals use signals to coordinate a wide range of behaviours, from feeding offspring to predator avoidance. This poses an evolutionary problem, because individuals could potentially signal dishonestly to coerce others into behaving in ways that benef...

Environmental Microbiology, 17(11), https://doi.org/10.1111/1462-2920.12857In Pseudomonas aeruginosa, quorum sensing (QS) regulates the production of secondary metabolites, many of which are antimicrobials that impact on polymicrobial community composition. Consequently, quenching QS modulates the environmental impact of P.... Read More about Biotic inactivation of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa quinolone signal molecule.
