Motility influences biofilm architecture in Escherichia coli

Eight Escherichia coli strains were studied in minimal medium with a continuous flow system using confocal microscopy. K12 wild-type strains ATCC 25404 and MG1655 formed the best biofilms (~43 μm thick, 21 to 34% surface coverage). JM109, DH5α, and MG1655 motA formed intermediate biofilms (~13 μm th...
