Bacillus subtilisis a widely used model bacterium to study cellular processes and development. The availability of an arrayed mutant library gave us the opportunity to cytologically analyze every mutant and screen for new genes involved in cell shape determination, cell division, and chromosome segregation. Here we describe a high-throughput method to image arrayedB. subtilismutant libraries using wide-field fluorescence microscopy. We provide a detailed description of growing the arrayed strain collection, preparing slides containing agarose pedestals, setting up the microscopy procedure, acquiring images, and analyzing the images.
