A first glimpse at the transcriptome of Physarum polycephalum [PDF]

BMC Genomics, 2008
Physarum polycephalum, an acellular plasmodial species belongs to the amoebozoa, a major branch in eukaryote evolution. Its complex life cycle and rich cell biology is reflected in more than 2500 publications on various aspects of its biochemistry, developmental biology, cytoskeleton, and cell motility. It now can be genetically manipulated, opening up

A Biophysical Approach to the Design of Networks of Communication Systems

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 4539-4547, 30 March 2026.
ABSTRACT Inspired by the growth dynamics of the protist Physarum polycephalum, we employ a formalism that describes adaptive, incompressible Hagen‐Poiseuille flows on channel networks to identify graphs connecting different nodes within Euclidean space. These graphs are either suboptimal or optimal relative to their length.

Fast and Slow Signal Propagation in Abiotic Polypeptide Assemblies

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 6, 27 March 2026.
Proteinoid microspheres formed by thermal polymerization of amino acids exhibit spontaneous electrical potential fluctuations without genetic material, membranes, or ion channels. Multi‐electrode recordings and electron microscopy reveal composition‐dependent voltage oscillations, long‐term drifts, and correlated signals across electrodes.

Mycelial dynamics in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 2, Page 691-713, January 2026.
Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), similar to other filamentous fungi, develop extensive hyphal networks collectively known as mycelia. AMF mycelia are complemented by a variety of specialized structures such as spores, vesicles, and auxiliary cells, which together form integrated and functionally diverse AMF networks.

Biomimetics in Helmet Design: A Review of Aerodynamic Perspectives

Journal of Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Recent advancements in helmet design demonstrate that mimicking natural models can enhance both aerodynamics and safety protection. Thus, this paper comprehensively reviews the bio‐inspired helmet designs reported in the latest computational and experimental studies, in addition to discussing the biomimetic approaches that integrate aerodynamic ...

Myxomycetes associated with Cactaceae in sub-humid (agreste) and semi-arid (sertão) regions of Pernambuco, Brazil [PDF]

Biotemas, 2011
Studies that indicate the presence of Myxomycetes in arid and semi-arid regions of the planet have revealed new taxons and high species diversity. In those environments, the Myxomycetes occupy special microhabitats like those offered by succulent plants.

Logics for Physarum Chips [PDF]

Studia Humana, 2016
AbstractThe paper considers main features of two groups of logics for biological devices, called Physarum Chips, based on the plasmodium. Let us recall that the plasmodium is a single cell with many diploid nuclei. It propagates networks by growing pseudopodia to connect scattered nutrients (pieces of food).
