Swimming of bacterium \textit{Bacillus subtilis} with multiple bundles of flagella

Javad Najafi, Florian Altegoer, Gert Bange +1

We characterize the bundle properties for three different strains of \textit{B. subtilis} bacteria with various numbers of flagella. Our study reveals that, surprisingly, the numbe…

Flagellar number governs bacterial spreading and transport efficiency

Javad Najafi, M. Reza Shaebani, Thomas John +3

Peritrichous bacteria synchronize and bundle their flagella to actively swim while disruption of the bundle leads to tumbling. It is still not known whether the number of flagella…

Front-propagation in bacterial inter-colony communication

Vera Bettenworth, Matthew McIntosh, Anke Becker +1

Many bacterial species exchange signaling molecules to coordinate population-wide responses. For this process known as quorum sensing the concentration of the respective molecules…
