Local polar order controls mechanical stress and triggers layer formation in developing Myxococcus xanthus colonies

Colonies of the social bacterium Myxococcus xanthus go through a morphological transition from a thin colony of cells to three-dimensional droplet-like fruiting bodies as a strategy to survive starvation. The biological pathways that control the decision to form a fruiting body have been studied ext...
