Abstract

Micron scale biogeography is a major driver of physiology and ecology of complex microbial biofilm communities, which remains elusive largely due to the lack of tools for spatially resolved phylogenetic mapping. This disclosure provides methods, computer-readable storage devices and kits that allow highly multiplexed and spatially resolved imaging of microbial community spatial organization. The disclosure provides a highly-multiplexed approach to resolve the spatial structure of complex microbial community at high taxonomic resolution.
