Abstract excerpt
Although a wealth of knowledge exists about the molecular and biochemical mechanisms governing the swimming motility of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, its surface swarming behavior has not been extensively characterized. When inoculated onto a semisolid agar medium supplemented with appropriate nutrients, serovar Typhimurium undergoes a morphological differentiation whereby single cells hyperflagellate...
