Spatial organization of bacterial populations in response to oxygen and carbon counter-gradients in pore networks
Spatial organisation of bacteria could contribute to the persistence of anoxic hotspots in soils, however such processes are difficult to observe directly. Here, the authors develop an experimental platform mimicking resource gradients postulated in soil aggregates to assess bacterial spatial organi...
