Abstract
An experiment has been performed that has shown the existence of cellular c
ommunication between optically coupled cultures which are chemically separa
te. The experiment used for the cellular culture the temperature-sensitive
mutant yeast strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The novelty of this experimen
t lies in the simplicity of the experimental protocol and in the reasonably
high statistic significance of the obtained results.
