a GY32 networks comprising filamentous cells and nanowire-like appendages stained by Nano-Orange. Inset shows the in situ networks around anode in an MFC, triangles indicate appendages. b Schematic of conductance measurement of the hydrated GY32 cell cluster. c Current–voltage profiles of live GY32 cell clusters and control samples (n = 18 independent bacterial cultures). d Current–time profiles of live GY32 cell clusters and control samples (the voltage is 0.1 V, n = 18 independent bacterial cultures). e 3D-topography image of dehydrated GY32 and an appendage. f Surface potential image according to (e). g Representative surface potential profile along the red line in (f), triangles indicate the locations of cell body and appendage. Data in (c) and (d) are plotted as mean and standard deviation. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
