Summary

It is shown that inactivation of the core chemotaxis genes cheVAWY in C. jejuni strain NCTC 11168 affects both chemotactic motility and biofilm formation, suggesting that while theChemotaxis system is not required for biofilmformation per se, it is necessary for organized biofilm Formation.
