Emergence of active nematics in chaining bacterial biofilms

Active nematics consist of elongated self-driven units and can emerge in bacterial systems. Here the authors investigate such emergence in a growing bacterial biofilm and demonstrate that localized stress and mechanical instabilities drive the formation of large-scale order.
