Inheritance of extrachromosomal rDNA in Physarum polycephalum. [PDF]
Molecular and Cellular Biology, 1983 In the acellular slime mold Physarum polycephalum, the several hundred genes coding for rRNA are located on linear extrachromosomal DNA molecules of a discrete size, 60 kilobases. Each molecule contains two genes that are arranged in a palindromic fashion and separated by a central spacer region. We investigated how rDNA is inherited after meiosis. Two

Advances in Aureobasidium research: Paving the path to industrial utilization
Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 17, Issue 8, August 2024.The extremotolerant fungus Aureobasidium chassis can utilize a broad spectrum of substrates to synthesize value‐added products including pullulan, polyol lipids, polymalate, and melanin. We furthermore describe available genetic engineering tools and up‐scaling approaches.

Representation of shape mediated by environmental stimuli in Physarum polycephalum and a multi-agent model [PDF]
Int. J. Parallel Emergent Distributed Syst., 2015 The slime mould Physarum polycephalum is known to construct protoplasmic transport networks which approximate proximity graphs by foraging for nutrients during its plasmodial life cycle stage.

Nanomaterials as Microglia Modulators in the Treatment of Central Nervous System Disorders
Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 13, Issue 12, May 7, 2024.Microglia activation states M1 and M2, besides their physiological roles, play key roles in the onset and progression of various CNS disorders. The modulation of microglia activity using nanomaterials represents a promising therapeutic approach for the treatment of these diseases (created with BioRender.com).

Exploiting Environmental Computation in a Multi-Agent Model of Slime Mould
, 2015 Very simple organisms, such as the single-celled amoeboid slime mould Physarum polycephalum possess no neural tissue yet, despite this, are known to exhibit complex biological and computational behaviour.

Origin and evolution of the slime molds (Mycetozoa) [PDF]
, 1997 The Mycetozoa include the cellular (dictyostelid), acellular (myxogastrid), and protostelid slime molds. However, available molecular data are in disagreement on both the monophyly and phylogenetic position of the group.

How vulnerable is an undirected planar graph with respect to max flow
Networks, Volume 83, Issue 3, Page 570-586, April 2024.Abstract We study the problem of computing the vitality of edges and vertices with respect to the st$$ st $$‐max flow in undirected planar graphs, where the vitality of an edge/vertex is the st$$ st $$‐max flow decrease when the edge/vertex is removed from the graph. This allows us to establish the vulnerability of the graph with respect to the st$$ st

A revised model of fluid transport optimization in Physarum polycephalum
, 2016 Optimization of fluid transport in the slime mold Physarum polycephalum has been the subject of several modeling efforts in recent literature. Existing models assume that the tube adaptation mechanism in P. polycephalum's tubular network is controlled by
