Group irritability is a universal existence of cell-to-cell communications in bacteria,i.e.bacteria can release expandable signal molecules to percept the density of cell group and regulate some physiological behavior of their own.Recent studies have found that among fungi also exist pheromone similar to bacterial group signal molecules,and participate in regulation of their physiological behaviors such as phase diversion,pathogenesis,secondary metabolite production etc.Recent progress on group irritability system in fungi was reviewed in this paper.
