Local polar order controls mechanical stress and triggers layer formation in Myxococcus xanthus colonies by Endao Han, Chenyi Fei, Ricard Alert, Katherine Copenhagen, Matthias D. Koch, Ned S. Wingreen, Joshua W. Shaevitz

“…Average cell velocity and active force at topological defects agree with predictions from active nematic theory, but their fluctuations are substantially larger than the mean due to polar active forces generated by the self-propelled rod-shaped cells. We find that M. xanthus cells adjust their reversal frequency to tune the magnitude of this local polar order, which in turn controls the mechanical stresses and triggers layer formation in the colonies.…”
