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?
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
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
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]
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
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.

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 ...

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
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
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.
