An epigenetic switch activates bacterial quorum sensing and horizontal transfer of an integrative and conjugative element

Horizontal transfer of the integrative and conjugative element ICEMlSym(R7A) converts non-symbiotic Mesorhizobium spp. into nitrogen-fixing legume symbionts. Here, we discover subpopulations of Mesorhizobium japonicum R7A become epigenetically primed for quorum-sensing (QS) and QS-activated horizont...
