Competitive Distribution of Public Goods: The Role of Quorum Sensing in the Development of Bacteria Colonies
The production of public goods is a necessary condition for the survival of the species, but it comes at the expense of individual growth. In a prototype bacterial colony, we model the role of quorum sensing as a resource redistribution mechanism. Two types of bacterial colonies are analyzed, one ma...
