From a 2011 Paper on Bacterial Flagella, Little Comfort for Darwinists

An email correspondent pointed out a 2011 paper to me, "Structural diversity of bacterial flagellar motors," published by the European Molecular Biology Organization. The paper looks at bacterial flagella from a wide phylogenetic distribution using "electron cryotomography" -- a pretty new technique that they say allows them to get greater detail more easily.

They write in the abstract that "While a conserved structural core was observed in all 11 bacteria imaged, surprisingly novel and diver...
