Quantative assessment of localized growth rates and gene expression patterns in Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms
This dissertation work provides evidence of heterogeneity in the distribution of gene expression and growth rates among surface associated cells of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Currently, methodologies used for characterizing biofilm heterogeneity are constrained by the need of in vitro biofilm growth an...
