Description

These data are the result of experiments undertaken to understand the relative importance of swimming motility on bacterial access to the air-liquid interface of static microcosms, and the effect of increasing liquid viscosity on Wrinkly Spreader evolution, fitness, and biofilm-forming characteristics. This work is presented in Jerdan et al., Microbiology 2019;165:1061–1074 DOI 10.1099/mic.0.000844.
