  1. What do colony patterns mean? - A biologist’s view 1. The colony as an organized, differentiated structure with a complex morphogenesis, even laboratory E. coli. 2. Patterns that reflect the formation of adaptive structures: genetic analysis. 3. A pattern that reflects the operation of adaptive systems under defined conditions: environmental analysis and modeling (Proteus mirabilis). 4. The dense-branching morphology of B. subtilis colonies under nutritional restriction: a problem for modeling. James A. Shapiro, University of Chicago

  2. Clonal and Non-clonal Patterns in E. coli Colonies

  3. Initiation of E. coli colony development

  4. Morphogenesis and cellular differentiation in E. coli

  5. Colony differentiation into organized regions: E. coli

  6. Patterns that reflect the formation of adaptive structures: E. coli Budrene EO, Berg HC. Dynamics of formation of symmetrical patterns by chemotactic bacteria. Nature. 1995 376(6535):49-53.

Branched swarming patterns on a synthetic medium formed by wild-type Bacillus subtilis strain 3610: detection of different cellular morphologies and constellations of cells as the complex architecture develops.

  22. Motility occurs in a small “fingernail” region at the tip of each dendrite M. Matsushita

  23. Observations and hypotheses for modeling B. subtilis DBM Observations: • Amino acids necessary (I.B. Holland, personal communication) • DBM limited to a special region of the nutritional-mobility space • DBM characterized by branches that do not grow in width • Tip-splitting occurs when branches separated by a critical distance • Increased cell activity in a limited zone at the tip of each dendrite Hypotheses: • Tip expansion requires active cell movement inside front • Cell movement occurs only above a threshold amino acid level • Cell movement is the major sink for amino acid consumption • Glucose-based growth is not nutritionally limited
