Bacterial Swarming: A Re-examination of Cell-Movement Patterns
Many bacteria simultaneously grow and spread rapidly over a surface that supplies them with nutrient. Called 'swarming', this pattern of movement directs new cells to the edge of the colony. Swarming reduces competition between cells for nutrients, speeding growth. Behind the swarm edge, where the cell density is higher, growth is limited by transport of nutrient from the subsurface to the over...
متن کاملFinding gene-expression patterns in bacterial biofilms.
The production of biofilms by bacteria is a lifestyle that is thought to require or involve a differential gene expression compared with that of planktonic bacteria. Recently, we have witnessed a change of focus from the simple hunt for hypothetical essential biofilm genes to the identification of late and more complex biofilm functions. However, finding common bacterial biofilm gene-expression...
متن کاملSand Movement patterns in the south of Iran
Wind regime data from the Jask meteorological station from a 20-year statistical period (1985-2005) was analyzedusing the Fryberger method to investigate sand drift potential (DP) in this area. The resultant drift potential anddirectional variability of wind were calculated and illustrated. Average annual sand DP was estimated to be 460vector units (VU), and the sand flux is 51 m3/m.year. There...
متن کاملPatterns of tongue movement
This paper discusses the pivot pattern of tongue movement. In this pattern, there is a point in the vocal tract where there is no motion, but there is motion at points of the vocal tract anterior and posterior to the pivot point. Based on tongue edge tracings of frames from ultrasound and x-ray dynamic imaging of the vocal tract, I will show that the pivot pattern is used in a variety of sequen...
متن کاملBacterial patterns
The delicately branching tree shown above (left) is formed by a complex multicellular assembly of the myxobacterium Chondromyces crocatus. A fruiting body of Stigmatella aurantiaca is shown on the lower right. Myxobacteria are gram-negative soil bacteria characterized by the type of social behaviour more often associated with eukaryotes. Their fruiting bodies contain resistant spores that arise...
