Regulatory network controls microbial biofilm development, with Candida albicans as a representative: from adhesion to dispersal

Microorganisms mainly exist in the form of biofilm in nature. Biofilm can contaminate food and drinking water system, as well as cause chronic wound infections, thereby posing a potential threat to public health safety. In the last two decades, researchers have made efforts to investigate the geneti...
