In-Silico Molecular Phylogeny of Philippine Myxomycetes using 18S rRNA and small subunit rRNA (SSU) Gene Sequences [PDF]
Myxomycetes, commonly called plasmodial slime molds, are eukaryotic organisms usually thriving on terrestrial ecosystems, manifesting attributes of fungi and protists.

Encystation:the most prevalent and underinvestigated differentiation pathway of eukaryotes [PDF]
Not long ago, protists were considered one of four eukaryote kingdoms, but recent gene-based phylogenies show that they contribute to all nine eukaryote subdomains.

Матеріали до мікобіоти Національного природного парку “Олешківські піски” та прилеглих територій (Херсонська область, Україна) [PDF]
As a result of the National Nature Park "Oleshkivski Pisky" microbiota study, 112 species of fungi and fungi-like protists were found: 18 species are slime molds, 1 – Zygomycota, 32 – Ascomycota and 61 – Basidiomycota representatives.

Diversity and Evolution of Sensor Histidine Kinases in Eukaryotes [PDF]
Histidine kinases (HKs) are primary sensor proteins that act in cell signaling pathways generically referred to as "two component systems" (TCSs). TCSs are among the most widely distributed transduction systems used by both prokaryotic and eukaryotic ...

Revisions to the Classification, Nomenclature, and Diversity of Eukaryotes
Abstract This revision of the classification of eukaryotes follows that of Adl et al., 2012 [J. Euk. Microbiol. 59(5)] and retains an emphasis on protists. Changes since have improved the resolution of many nodes in phylogenetic analyses. For some clades even families are being clearly resolved.

A Non‐Flagellated Member of the Myxogastria and Expansion of the Echinosteliida
AbstractMyxogastria (also called Myxomycetes or plasmodial slime‐moulds) are mostly known through their usually conspicuous fruiting bodies. Another unifying trait is the presence of a facultative flagellate stage along with the obligate amoeboid stage.

Local taxonomic spectra in plants, animals, fungi and terrestrial protists show common mathematical patterns [PDF]
Taxonomic spectra, i.e. relations between supraspecific taxa by the number of included species, remain poorly understood in aspect of the mathematical properties.

Invalidation of Hyperamoeba by Transferring its Species to Other Genera of Myxogastria
The genus Hyperamoeba Alexeieff, 1923 was established to accommodate an aerobic amoeba exhibiting three life stages—amoeba, flagellate, and cyst. As more species/strains were isolated, it became increasingly evident from small subunit (SSU) gene phylogenies and ultrastructure that Hyperamoeba is polyphyletic and its species occupy different positions ...

Slime moulds (Myxogastria) on agricultural crops
Myxomycetes, better known as ‘plasmodial slime moulds’, are organisms that can be found on plant litter. It is known that they feed on bacteria but the plasmodium can also ingest spores and even feed on mycelium. This makes slime moulds potentially interesting organisms in the context as a biocontrol agent (BCA) against plant pathogens (e.g., Fusarium).
