Scope and Contents
Contents
Surface-attached bacterial communities called biofilms display a diversity of morphologies. Although structural and regulatory components required for biofilm formation are known, it is not understood how these essential constituents promote biofilm surface morphology. Here, using
as our model system, we combine mechanical measurements, theory a...
