Determination of Whether Quorum Quenching Is a Common Activity in Marine Bacteria by Analysis of Cultivable Bacteria and Metagenomic Sequences. Appl Environ Microbiol 78:. https://doi.org/10.1128/AEM.01266-12https://hdl.handle.net/10347/38219The abundance of quorum quenching (QQ) activity was evaluated in cultivable bacteria obtained from oceanic and estuarine seawater and compared with the frequency of QQ enzyme sequences in the available marine metagenomic collections. The possible role of the high QQ activity found among marine bacteria is discussed.engjournal article10.1128/AEM.01266-12open access
