摘要: Most organisms are able to use social information adjust key behaviours in their lifecycle including dispersal and cooperation. Ciliate microcosms provide a highly powerful tool study the role of biocommunication ecology evolution because they allow simultaneous chemical carriers eco-evolutionary consequences within short spatial temporal scales. Here, we review what is known about existence its on cooperation Tetrahymena, point out usefulness Tetrahymena further develop our understanding mechanisms implications dynamics.
