Cover illustration: The predatory soil bacterium Myxococcus xanthus uses gliding motility to spread over surfaces. On moist surfaces the cells rely predominantly on pilus‐driven social (S‐) motility, while on drier surfaces they use adventurous (A‐) motility, a form of gliding for which the motor is currently unknown.
