HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Hilary Monaco from the Department Binghamton University Jean Perrin (LJP), Paris, France have published the research: Spatial-temporal dynamics of a microbial cooperative behavior resistant to cheating, in the Journal: NATURE COMMUNICATIONS NATURE COMMUNICATIONS of 31/01/2020
• what: The authors show that spatially segregated colonies of P. aeruginosa, previously only reported to show micrometer-scale communication12,31,32, are capable of responding to communication molecules across centimeter-scale distances.
