    Abstract:

    Involvements of bacterial quorum-sensing in regulations of diverse responses are common in bacteria. Recently, it has become apparent that fungi, like bacteria, also has specific quorum sensing molecules and use quorum sensing to regulate some population-level behaviors of fungi. The recent progress on quorum sensing in fungi is described and the possibility of taking fungal quorum-sensing as potential targets for antifungal therapies is discussed in the present paper.
