Three faces of biofilms: a microbial lifestyle, a nascent multicellular organism, and an incubator for diversity
Abstract Biofilms are organised heterogeneous assemblages of microbial cells that are encased within a self-produced matrix. Current estimates suggest that up to 80% of bacterial and archaeal cells reside in biofilms. Since biofilms are the main mode of microbial life, understanding their biology an...
