Orientation field model for chiral branching growth of bacterial colonies
Inon Cohen, Eshel Ben-Jacob
We present a new reaction-diffusion model for chiral branching growth of colonies of the bacteria Paenibacillus dendritiformis. In our model the bacteria are represented by a densi…

Modeling branching and chiral colonial patterning of lubricating bacteria
Eshel Ben-Jacob, Inon Cohen, Ido Golding +1
In nature, microorganisms must often cope with hostile environmental conditions. To do so they have developed sophisticated cooperative behavior and intricate communication capabil…

Continuous and discrete models of cooperation in complex bacterial colonies
Inon Cohen, Ido Golding, Yonathan Kozlovsky +1
We study the effect of discreteness on various models for patterning in bacterial colonies. In a bacterial colony with branching pattern, there are discrete entities - bacteria - w…
