The biological process involved in maintaining the steady-state of cell number within a population of free-living cells such as the bacteria in the gut. The process in which a community of single-celled organisms of different species monitors population density by detecting the concentration of small diffusible signal molecules. Any process by which an organism has an effect on another organism of the same or different species. The process in which a community of single-celled organisms living in intimate contact with a host organism monitors population density by detecting the concentration of small diffusible signal molecules. The host is defined as the larger of the organisms involved in a symbiotic interaction. Any process by which an organism has an effect on an organism of a different species. The process by which single-celled organisms monitor their population density by detecting the concentration of small, diffusible signal molecules produced by the cells themselves.
