Biofilms and Extracts from Bacteria Producing "<i>Quorum Sensing</i>" Signaling Molecules Promote Chemotaxis and Settlement Behaviors in <i>Hydractinia symbiolongicarpus</i> (Cnidaria: Hydrozoa) Larvae
Many sessile marine invertebrates have life cycles involving the development of larvae that settle on specific substrates to initiate metamorphosis to juvenile forms. Although is recognized that bacterial biofilms play a role in this process, the responsible chemical cues are beginning to be invest...
