Gliding paths of motile M. gallisepticum. A stack of phase-contrast pictures of M. gallisepticum RCL1, captured at 1-s intervals, was manipulated with Fiji by applying a Z projection method [24] to visualize the paths of gliding mycoplasmas. Differential colouring of mycoplasmas (red) and their paths (green) was done with Adobe Photoshop. This qualitative microcinematography motility assay allowed the rapid assessment of the motility of wild-type and mutant strains.
