The role of mechanical forces in the planar-to-bulk transition in growing Escherichia coli microcolonies
Mechanical forces are obviously important in the assembly of three-dimensional multicellular structures, but their detailed role is often unclear. We have used growing microcolonies of the bacterium Escherichia coli to investigate the role of mechanical forces in the transition from two-dimensional...
