Saludos.
Por favor para tener la mejor forma de llamar esta motilidad.
Gracias y disculpas si la pregunta no viene al caso.

Biofilm Matrix and Its Regulation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Flagella mediate swimming and swarming motility of P. aeruginosa. It can also act as an adhesin and
play critical roles in the initial cell-to-surface interactions [60]. T4P is a linear actuator critical for
twitching motility that involves an extension-grip-retraction mechanism [61]. T4P plays important roles
in microcolony formation of P. aeruginosa biofilms by forming typical mushroom caps [60]. As
mentioned above, T4P-driven bacterial motilities can help to form Psl fiber matrix [25]. Another group,
however, drew the conclusion that flagella and pili are not required for the initial attachment or biofilm
formation [62], indicating that flagella- and pili-mediated biofilm formation could be conditional and
nutritional. Recently, another newly identified adhesin named CdrA was demonstrated to be a key
protein functioning as a structural component of P. aeruginosa EPS matrix [63]. This adhesin could
directly interact with Psl polysaccharide to mediate bacterial auto-aggregation and increase
biofilm stability.

movilidad natatoria y desplazamiento swarming (enjambre)
Explanation:
El flagelo ayuda/fomenta la capacidad natatoria y los patrones de desplazamiento swarming (enjambre) de la p. aeruginosa...

El desplazamiento swarming, es un tipo de movilidad que presentan las
bacterias en ambientes semisólidos, donde intervienen, tanto una modificación morfológica (aumento de tamaño celular y producción de múltiples flagelos laterales)
