同时发现其对于MS10362R次生代谢产物-黑色素的产生和产量具有明显的抑制作用，初步推测可能与抑制细菌的群体感应有关；
At the same time, the production of melanin, secondary metabolite of MS10362R, was reduced, which might be the effect of QS (quorum sensing) system.
细菌利用化学信号相互沟通，在这个过程中释放和接收能被群体感应到的信号分子。
Bacteria communicate using chemical signals, releasing and receiving signalling molecules in a process known as quorum sensing.
最简单的例子，细菌用群体感应与他们的邻居保持联系。
In its simplest form, bacteria use quorum sensing to keep track of their neighbours.
