Beneficial plant–microbe associations play critical roles in plant health. Bacterial chemotaxis
provides a competitive advantage to motile flagellated bacteria in colonization of plant root …

The study of chemotaxis describes the cellular processes that control the movement of
organisms toward favorable environments. In bacteria and archaea, motility is controlled by …

Ammonia-oxidizing Archaea (AOA) are ubiquitous throughout the oceanic water column;
however, our knowledge on their physiological and ecological diversity in different oceanic …

Comparable processes in different species often involve homologous genes. One question
is whether the network structure, in particular the feedback control structure, is also …

More than half the known bacterial species swim, with swimming being used to direct their
overall movement towards an optimum environment for growth, which could include sites of …

The mitogenic-adipogenic activity of carbaprostacyclin (cPGI2), a stable analogue of
prostacyclin (PGI2), has been proposed to be related to its ability to elicit cAMP production …

Adaptation has a crucial role in the gradient-sensing mechanism that underlies bacterial
chemotaxis. The Escherichia coli chemotaxis pathway uses a single adaptation system …

Cells of Rhizobium meliloti swim by the unidirectional, clockwise rotation of their right‐
handed helical flagella and respond to tactic stimuli by modulating the flagellar rotary speed …

Much is now known about chemotaxis signaling transduction for Escherichia coli and
Salmonella typhimurium. The mechanism of chemotaxis of Bacillus subtilis is, in a sense …

The extracellular matrix fibrils of Myxococcus xanthus are essential for the social lifestyle of
this unusual bacterium. These fibrils form networks linking or encasing cells and are tightly …
