Phototaxis in Cyanobacteria: From Mutants to Models of Collective Behavior
ABSTRACT Cyanobacteria rely on photosynthesis, and thus have evolved complex responses to light. These include phototaxis, the ability of cells to sense light direction and move towards or away from it. Analysis of mutants has demonstrated that phototaxis requires the coordination of multiple photor...
