Droplet printing reveals the importance of micron-scale structure for bacterial ecology

The spatial arrangement of bacterial strains and species within microbial communities is considered crucial for their ecology. Here, Krishna Kumar et al. use a droplet-based printing method to arrange different bacterial genotypes across a sub-millimetre array, and show that micron-scale changes in...
