A quorum sensing-mediated switch contributes to natural transformation of Vibrio cholerae
There is a fundamental gap in our understanding of how horizontal gene transfer contributes to the enormous range of genetic variations that are observed among bacteria. The objective of our study was to better understand how the acquisition of genetic material by natural transformation is regulated...
