Hyperswarmers spread faster than wild-type P. aeruginosa over soft surfaces prepared at 0.5% (w/v) agar (swarming media). (a) Contour plot from a time lapse of swarming wild-type. Contours drawn at 10 minutes intervals. (b) Contour plot for the hyperswarmer with mutation FleN(W253C), also drawn at 10 minutes intervals. (c) The area of the expanding colony over time shows that hyperswarmers spread faster than wild-type over swarming media. (d) Mean velocity of the swarming colony front confirms that hyperswarmers are faster than wild-type in swarming media.
