Two new species and three new records of Diachea (Physarales) from China based on morphological and molecular evidence

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Diachea is an important genus of myxomycetes, recognized for its ecological role and wide distribution. This study aimed to expand knowledge of species diversity within this genus in China. We collected Diachea specimens from various locations in Shaanxi

Genetic structure of the protist Physarum albescens (Amoebozoa) revealed by multiple markers and genotyping by sequencing

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 372-390, January 2022., 2022
Abstract Myxomycetes are terrestrial protists with many presumably cosmopolitan species dispersing via airborne spores. A truly cosmopolitan species would suffer from outbreeding depression hampering local adaptation, while locally adapted species with limited distribution would be at a higher risk of extinction in changing environments.

Ecological assemblages of corticulous myxomycetes in forest communities of the North-East Ukraine

open access: yesBiosystems Diversity, 2021
Corticulous myxomycetes remain one of the least surveyed ecological groups of terrestrial protists. These organisms develop on the bark of trees, mostly feeding on bacteria and microalgae.

18S rDNA phylogeny of lamproderma and allied genera (Stemonitales, Myxomycetes, Amoebozoa). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The phylogenetic position of the slime-mould genus Lamproderma (Myxomycetes, Amoebozoa) challenges traditional taxonomy: although it displays the typical characters of the order Stemonitales, it appears to be sister to Physarales.

Life Cycles of Myxogastria Stemonitopsis typhina and Stemonitis fusca on Agar Culture

open access: yesJournal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 67, Issue 1, Page 66-75, January/February 2020., 2020
Abstract Myxogastria is a group of protozoa characterized by cellular uninucleate amoeboflagellates (myxamoebae and flagellated swarm cell), acellular multinucleate plasmodia, and stationary spore‐bearing sporocarps. The Stemonitales is a large order in the Myxogastria and contains approximately 230 species, but only 13 species have their completed ...

Bioinspired Mobility‐Aware Clustering Optimization in Flying Ad Hoc Sensor Network for Internet of Things: BIMAC‐FASNET

open access: yesComplexity, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Flying ad hoc sensor network (FASNET) for Internet of Things (IoT) consists of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (multi‐UAVs) with high mobility, quick changes in topology, and diverse direction. The flying multi‐UAVs were operated remotely by human beings or automatically by an onboard system.

Polyphyletic origin of the genus Physarum (Physarales, Myxomycetes) revealed by nuclear rDNA mini-chromosome analysis and group I intron synapomorphy

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2012
Background Physarales represents the largest taxonomic order among the plasmodial slime molds (myxomycetes). Physarales is of particular interest since the two best-studied myxomycete species, Physarum polycephalum and Didymium iridis, belong to this ...
