Abstract
ABSTRACT
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
is a ubiquitous bacterium capable of twitching, swimming, and swarming motility. In this study, we present evidence that
P. aeruginosa
has two flagellar stators, conserved in all pseudomonads as well as some other gram-negative bacteria. Either stator is sufficient for swimming, but both are necessary for swarming motility under most of the conditions tested, suggesting that these two stators may have different roles in these two types of motility.
