7 Sep 1999 | Subject: | Biological Physics; Statistical Mechanics; Pattern Formation and Solitons; Populations and Evolution | physics.bio-ph cond-mat.stat-mech nlin.PS patt-sol q-bio.PE | Abstract: | We present a simple model based on a reaction-diffusion equation to explain pattern formation in a multicellular bacterium (Streptomyces). We assume competition for resources as the basic mechanism that leads to pattern formation; in particular we are able to reproduce the spatial pattern formed by bacterial aerial mycelium in case of growth in minimal (low resources) and maximal (large resources) culture media. | Source: | arXiv, physics/9909012 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
