Physiological adaptation in flagellar architecture improves Vibrio alginolyticus chemotaxis in complex environments

This study shows that lateral flagella in Vibrio alginolyticus improve chemotaxis in complex environments like polymer solutions and hydrogels, but hinder it in water.

Vibrio cholerae motility in aquatic and mucus-mimicking environments

This study characterizes Vibrio cholerae motility in different environments, finding asymmetric run-reverse-flick behavior and speed fluctuations that may aid in crossing the intestinal mucus barrier.

A multiscale 3D chemotaxis assay reveals bacterial navigation mechanisms

This paper introduces a multiscale 3D chemotaxis assay to study bacterial navigation and finds that Caulobacter crescentus chemotaxis differs from the Escherichia coli model.
