Phylogeny of Physarida (Amoebozoa, Myxogastria) Based on the Small‐Subunit Ribosomal RNA Gene, Redefinition of Physarum pusillum s. str. and Reinstatement of P. gravidum Morgan

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.

A Comparison of the Proteins of the Amoebal and Plasanodial Phases of the Slime Mould, Physarum polycephalum [PDF]

European Journal of Biochemistry, 2005
1. The proteins of amoebae and plasmodia of strain CL of Physarum polycephalum have been compared by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Both forms of the organism were labelled by growth on formalin-killed bacteria labelled with [35S]sulphate, [3H]lysine or [14C]lysine. Plasmodia were also labelled from radioactive lysine in the medium. 2.

Life Cycles of Myxogastria Stemonitopsis typhina and Stemonitis fusca on Agar Culture

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 67, Issue 1, Page 66-75, January/February 2020., 2020
Abstract Myxogastria is a group of protozoa characterized by cellular uninucleate amoeboflagellates (myxamoebae and flagellated swarm cell), acellular multinucleate plasmodia, and stationary spore‐bearing sporocarps. The Stemonitales is a large order in the Myxogastria and contains approximately 230 species, but only 13 species have their completed ...

Natural strategies for ultraviolet resilience: lessons from slime moulds [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation exerts strong selective pressures on microbial life, yet many microorganisms display extraordinary resistance, revealing strategies that may be broadly useful for understanding survival under extreme stress.

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.

Myxomycete diversity in the coastal desert of Peru with emphasis on the lomas formations

Anales del Jardín Botánico de Madrid, 2016
Results obtained from the first survey for myxomycetes in the hyperarid areas of Peru are reported. Sampling over three consecutive years was carried out at 96 localities between 0 and 1500 m elevation.

Myxomycete diversity of the Patagonian Steppe and bordering areas in Argentina

Anales del Jardín Botánico de Madrid, 2014
Biodiversity surveys for myxomycetes (Amoebozoa) were carried out in three consecutive years (2009 to 2011) in the cold arid Patagonian Steppe, Argentina.

Sclerotia of the acellular (true) slime mould Fuligo septica as a model to study melanization and anabiosis [PDF]

, 2008
Acellular (true) slime moulds (Myxomycetes) are capable of a transition to the stage of sclerotium - a dormant form of plasmodium produced under unfavourable environmental conditions.

Revisions to the Classification, Nomenclature, and Diversity of Eukaryotes

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 66, Issue 1, Page 4-119, January/February 2019., 2019
Abstract This revision of the classification of eukaryotes follows that of Adl et al., 2012 [J. Euk. Microbiol. 59(5)] and retains an emphasis on protists. Changes since have improved the resolution of many nodes in phylogenetic analyses. For some clades even families are being clearly resolved.

Functional ecological role of slime moulds (Eumycetozoa) in forest biodiversity and conservation

Global Ecology and Conservation
Forest ecosystems derive much of their stability from the efficiency of detrital pathways, yet the functional roles of slime moulds (Eumycetozoa) in forest detrital food webs remain poorly synthesised and are rarely incorporated into forest management or
