P. VORTEX BACTERIA. “Its information processing abilities are supported by exceptionally high number of communication related genes (two-component system (TCS), transcription factors (TFs), transport and defense related genes) suggesting a high “Bacterial Social Intelligence Quotient (IQ) Score”.”" "(Chapter 10) https://lnkd.in/dH829kt View in LinkedIn

"THE NEW HUMAN SPECIES is one that begins to engineer the evolution of viruses, plants, animals, and itself. As we do that, Darwin’s rules get bent, and sometimes even broken. By taking direct and deliberate control over our evolution, we are living in a world where we are modifying stuff according to our desires. . . . Eventually, we get to the point where evolution is guided by what we’re engineering. That’s a big deal.” (Juan Enriquez). https://lnkd.in/dKSv-YU View in LinkedIn

DYNAMIC COLONIES. “New features can collectively emerge during self-organization from the intracellular level to the whole colony. P. vortex, is a highly social, motile, pattern forming bacteria.”" "(Chapter 10) https://lnkd.in/dH829kt View in LinkedIn

BROADCASTING. “The cell plasticity allows the bacteria to select its response to biochemical messages it receives, including self-alteration (exposure to antibiotics causes enrichment of one subpopulation in Paenibacillus vortex) and the broadcasting of messages to influence on other bacteria.”" "(Chapter 10) https://lnkd.in/dH829kt View in LinkedIn

AUTONOMOUS REPLICONS. “Each bacterium is, by itself, a biotic autonomous system with its own internal cellular informatics capabilities (storage and processing of information triggering an appropriate response).”" "(Chapter 10) https://lnkd.in/dH829kt View in LinkedIn

BACTERIAL SOCIETIES. “Complex organizations of bacteria emerge through the communication-based interplay between individuals.”" "(Chapter 10) https://lnkd.in/dH829kt View in LinkedIn

BACTERIAL LANGUAGE. “These mechanisms are part of the intra-cellular functional complexity which is used to generate intrinsic meaning for contextual interpretations of the chemical messages and for formulating appropriate complex responses.”" "(Chapter 10) https://lnkd.in/dH829kt View in LinkedIn

GENETIC LANGUAGE. “Many bacteria have intricate intra-cellular signaling mechanisms involving signal transduction networks and genetic language.”" "(Chapter 10) https://lnkd.in/dH829kt View in LinkedIn
