Bacterial chemotaxis in a microfluidic T-maze reveals strong phenotypic heterogeneity in chemotactic sensitivity

Chemotaxis is usually considered as a trait of a species or population. Here, the authors use a microfluidics device to reveal that clonal E. coli show individual variation in a key aspect of chemotactic behavior.
