PHYSARUM SPATIAL LOGIC [PDF]

open access: possibleNew Mathematics and Natural Computation, 2011
Plasmodium of Physarum polycephalum is a large single cell capable for distributed sensing, information processing, decentralized decision-making and collective action. In the paper, we interpret basic features of the plasmodium foraging behavior in terms of process calculus and spatial logic and show that this behavior could be regarded as one of the

No growth cycle in Physarum?

Experimental Cell Research, 1981
Abstract The activities of a number of enzymes have been determined in growing plasmodia of Physarum polycephalum at 1 h intervals during the naturally synchronous nuclear division cycle. The enzymes selected represent the main pathways of energy metabolism, they do not require posttranslational steps for activation, nor are they directly involved in

The mitotic oscillator in Physarum polycephalum

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1975
This article reports evidence that mitosis in the syncytial plasmodium of Physarum polycephalum is controlled by a continuous biochemical oscillation. In the Introduction, inferences drawn from past experiments are evaluated. Results of experiments fusing two plasmodia at most possible phases and phase differences are reported.

Electroporation of Physarum polycephalum

2003
The protist Physarum polycephalum is a convenient system for studies of molecular and cellular biology of fundamental eukaryotic processes, including DNA replication, mitotic regulation, single-cell development, the cytoskeleton, and motility. The life cycle of this acellular slime mold exhibits a variety of developmental transitions, and the two ...

Routing Physarum with repellents

The European Physical Journal E, 2010
Plasmodium of Physarum polycephalum is a single cell with many nuclei. Plasmodium is an easy-to-experiment-with biological substrate, a multi-functional bio-material used to implement novel and future computing architectures. The plasmodium exhibits typical features of excitable chemical systems and capable for distributed sensing, parallel information

Physarum and Electronics

2016
We report the progress of using the plasmodium of Physarum as a biological electronic component. We provide blue prints of experimental prototypes of Physarum wires and analyse their transfer function, discuss how lifespan of a Physarum can be increased. We overview our experimental laboratory results on using Physarum wires with buffers and evaluate a

Acceleration-sensitivity threshold of Physarum

Journal of Biotechnology, 1996
Free-living cells show distinct gravisensitivities and often use the gravity ('g') vector for their spatial orientation. The rhythmic contractions of the ameboid Myxomycete (acellular slime mold) Physarum polycephalum are a sensitive parameter which can be modified by external stimuli.

Introduction to Physarum

1986
In the following, we attempt to demonstrate that Physarum is an adequate model system for studies of the eukaryotic mitotic cycle, cell differentiation, and motility, A schematic presentation of the life cycle of this organism is shown in Fig. 1-1, at the end of this chapter. (See Sauer and Pierron, 1983, for a recent review).
