Assessment of <i>Bacillus subtilis</i> Plasmid pLS20 Conjugation in the Absence of Quorum Sensing Repression

<i>Bacillus subtilis</i> conjugative plasmid pLS20 uses a quorum-sensing mechanism to control expression levels of its conjugation genes, involving the repressor Rco<sub>pLS20</sub>, the anti-repressor Rap<sub>pLS20</sub>, and the signaling peptide Phr*<sub>...
