Not Extremely Plastic: Testing the Limits of Morphological Plasticity in Fungal Mycelia in Response to Soil Grazers

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 12, December 2025.
Using image analysis to track the development of fungal networks in the presence of predators, we found that even in modular organisms, plasticity is more nuanced and limited than previously assumed. Our results challenge the long‐held notion that a modular body plan necessarily confers extreme plasticity.

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

open access: yesBiotemas, 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.

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

open access: yesBMC 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

Myxomycete Biodiversity on Remote Islands of the Eastern Indian Ocean: A Comparison Between the Cocos (Keeling) and Christmas Islands

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 57, Issue 6, November 2025.
A study of the diversity of myxomycetes associated with remote islands in the Indian Ocean. ABSTRACT Myxomycetes are a widespread group of organisms but, given their inconspicuousness and the specialist knowledge needed to culture and identify them, there are many regions of the world where they have never been studied.

Biohybrid Computing with Proteinoids and Algae

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 36, September 25, 2025.
We developed a novel biohybrid computing system by combining proteinoid microspheres with algae. The biological mixture creates spontaneous electrical oscillations. These oscillations can perform simple logic operations, such as AND, OR, NAND, and NOR gates. Environmental factors like temperature and pH affect how the system works.

Development of a New AMBER Force Field for Cysteine and Histidine Cadmium‐Binding Proteins and Its Validation Through QM/MM MD Simulations

open access: yesJournal of Computational Chemistry, Volume 46, Issue 16, June 15, 2025.
In the context of the AMBER parameterization, a new force field is developed and validated for the simulation of cadmium(II)‐binding proteins. The proposed force field takes into account the polarization effect produced by the central ion on its surroundings.
