Diet and mitonuclear haplotype interactions affect growth rate in a slime mould
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2023., 2023 Three‐way interactions between mitochondrial, nuclear haplotypes and dietary P:C ratios affected the slime mould's surface area of growth but not biomass. Our findings have broad implications for our understanding of the effect of mitonuclear interactions on trait expression across diverse eukaryotic lineages.

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 23, Issue 11, Page 6924-6939, November 2021., 2021 Summary Nitric oxide (NO) is a signalling molecule in eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms. NO levels transiently boost upon induction of conidiation in Aspergillus nidulans. Only one pathway for NO synthesis involving nitrate reductase has been reported in filamentous fungi so far, but this does not satisfy all the NO produced in fungal cells. Here we

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 68, Issue 6, November/December 2021., 2021 Abstract The Cutosea represent a deep‐branching lineage within the phylum Amoebozoa that is still relatively poorly explored. Currently, there are four cutosean representatives known – the monotypic genera Armaparvus, Idionectes, Sapocribrum, and Squamamoeba – with marked genetic distances. Idionectes vortex is the deepest‐branching species and differs

Speciation in progress? A phylogeographic study among populations of Hemitrichia serpula (Myxomycetes). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Myxomycetes (plasmodial slime molds, Amoebozoa) are often perceived as widely distributed, confounding to the "everything is everywhere" hypothesis. To test if gene flow within these spore-dispersed protists is restricted by geographical barriers, we ...

MycoAsia - Journal of Modern Mycology, 2020 The rich vegetation of volcanic forest offers a unique habitat to explore myxomycetes (slime molds). In this study, the occurrence and diversity of myxomycetes in forest areas of Taal Volcano Crater Rim (Mt.

The role of active movement in fungal ecology and community assembly [PDF]
, 2019 Movement ecology aims to provide common terminology and an integrative framework of movement research across all groups of organisms. Yet such work has focused on unitary organisms so far, and thus the important group of filamentous fungi has not been ...

Development of a Myxomycete Photoguide as a Teaching Tool for Microbial Taxonomy
Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2012 Recently, web-based identification guides have been developed to aid modern taxonomists in identifying organisms. Unfortunately, these guides can only be used wherever Internet access is available.

Allorecognition behavior of slime mold plasmodium—Physarum rigidum slime sheath-mediated self-extension model [PDF]
, 2018 When allogeneic plasmodia of Myxomycetes encounter each other, they fuse or avoid each other depending on the combination, indicating that plasmodia can recognize self and non-self.

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 67, Issue 3, Page 327-336, May/June 2020., 2020 Abstract Myxomycetes (also called Myxogastria or colloquially, slime molds) are worldwide occurring soil amoeboflagellates. Among Amoebozoa, they have the notable characteristic to form, during their life cycle, macroscopic fruiting bodies, that will ultimately release spores.
