Morphogenesis and cell ordering in confined bacterial biofilms
Morphogenesis and cell ordering in confined bacterial #biofilms. Study shows that the confining environment determines the dynamics of #biofilm shape & internal structure. Significance Biofilms are microbial cities in which bacterial cells reside in a polymeric matrix. They are commonly found inside soft confining environments such as food matrices and host tissues, against which bacteria must push to proliferate. Here, by combining single-cell live imaging and mechanical cha
