The relationship between the Hawaiian bobtail squid and the bioluminescent bacteria living in its light organ has been studied for decades as a model of symbiosis. Now researchers have used a powerful chemical analysis tool to identify a small molecule produced by the bacteria that appears to play an important role in their colonization of the light organ.
The study, published March 9 in the journal mBio, adds a new wrinkle to scientists’ understanding of the chemical signaling involved in this…
