Mixomicetos associados à serapilheira da nogueira-pecan, Carya illinoinensis (Wangenh.) K. Koch (Juglandaceae)

open access: yesHeringeriana, 2023
A nogueira-pecan (Carya illinoinensis, Juglandaceae) foi introduzida no Brasil no início do século XX por imigrantes americanos e seu cultivo atualmente se estende desde o Rio Grande do Sul até Minas Gerais, com aproximadamente 2,4 mil hectares plantados.

All Organisms Can Be Anesthetized, but There's No Point?

open access: yesBioEssays, Volume 47, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Because of their interest in medicine, most studies on anesthesia have historically focused on the nervous systems of animals. This has often led to the neglect of the fact that all life forms have the potential to be anesthetized. Anesthetics target proteins, such as four‐domain voltage‐dependent Na+/Ca2⁺ channels (4D‐NaV/CaV) and glutamate ...

Application of Hybrid Swarming Algorithm on a UAV Regional Logistics Distribution

open access: yesBiomimetics, 2023
This paper proposes a hybrid algorithm based on the ant colony and Physarum Polycephalum algorithms. The positive feedback mechanism is used to find the globally optimal path.

The structure of nucleolar chromatin in Physarum polycephalum

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 1978
The nucleolar DNA of Physarum polycephalum has been differentially labelled with 3H-thymidine and the structure of the nucleolar chromatin investigated by digestion with micrococcal nuclease. Nucleolar chromatin which had been labelled in G2 phase of the cell cycle and then digested before mitosis had an identical DNA repeat length to main band DNA ...

Control of chemotaxis in Physarum polycephalum. [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of cell biology, 1976
Plasmodia migrate towards those situations which increase the frequency of their alternations in streaming, and away from those which decrease the frequency. Therefore peristalsis-like waves in Physarum move in the direction opposite from the net movement of the organism. The mechanism is fundamentally related to other known types of chemotaxis.

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.

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 ...

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.

Physarum polycephalum: Smart Network Adaptation

open access: yesAnnual Review of Condensed Matter Physics
Life evolved organisms to adapt dynamically to their environment and autonomously exhibit behaviors. Although complex behaviors in organisms are typically associated with the capability of neurons to process information, the unicellular organism Physarum polycephalum disabuses us by solving complex tasks despite being just a single although gigantic ...

Multistable Physical Neural Networks

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2025.
This article presents the integration of mechanical bistability into physical neural networks (PNNs), enabling memory retention and bridging computation with physical action. By mapping the equilibrium states of bistable, liquid‐filled chambers, it explores stability and introduces global and local training algorithms.
