Bacterial motility and chemotaxis have been studied most intensively in Escherichia coli and its close relative Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (earlier called Salmonella typhimurium in this chapter it will be called Salmonella in short). The focus of this chapter is, therefore, on these species. Other bacterial species are discussed in brief.
