This project studies the swarming behavior of bacteria in natural habitats, examining how individual cells interact within multilayered colonies. It aims to understand the dynamics of bacterial movement and the impact of environmental conditions on their collective behavior.
Motile bacteria are able to colonize surfaces using various types of motility. ‘Bacterial swarming’ is the most rapid method, involving an organized, hyperflagellated-based cell motion and collective secretion of bio-surfactants.
During swarming, bacteria exploit hydrodynamic interactions; they move in whirls and jets similarly to flocks of birds and schools of fish.
Hundreds of cells migrate on the surface in dynamic clusters and form either a single layer or multiple layers, depending on the s…
