Bioactivity | N-Hexanoyl-DL-homoserine lactone is a bacterial quorum sensing molecule produced in the rhizosphere. N-Hexanoyl-DL-homoserine lactone, a bacterial quorum sensing signal, induces transcriptional changes in Arabidopsis and may contribute to tuning plant growth to the microbial composition of the rhizosphere[1]. | ||||||||||||
