Fig 7. Propulsion speed of rod-shaped prokaryotes vs morphological factor 1/ξ2.

Fig 7

Bacteria are plotted in squares and archaea in circles with colours used to distinguish between the different taxonomic classes. The plot, along with Eq (14), allows to estimate the range of bacterial motor torques 27.48 − 1907 pN nm, represented by the shaded area.
