Slime mould tactile sensor [PDF]

, 2013
Slime mould P. polycephalum is a single cells visible by unaided eye. The cells shows a wide spectrum of intelligent behaviour. By interpreting the behaviour in terms of computation one can make a slime mould based computing device.

Patterns of cell movement within the Dictyostelium slug revealed by cell type-specific, surface labeling of living cells [PDF]

, 1994
There are cells acattered in the rear, prespore region of the Dictyostelium slug that share many of the properties of the prestalk cells and that are therefore called anterior-like cells (ALCs).

Improved Slime Mold Algorithm with Dynamic Quantum Rotation Gate and Opposition-Based Learning for Global Optimization and Engineering Design Problems

Algorithms, 2022
The slime mold algorithm (SMA) is a swarm-based metaheuristic algorithm inspired by the natural oscillatory patterns of slime molds. Compared with other algorithms, the SMA is competitive but still suffers from unbalanced development and exploration and ...

Twisted scroll waves organize Dictyostelium mucoroides slugs [PDF]

, 1997
Cellular slime moulds (Dictyosteloids) are characterised by at least two different modes of slug migration. Most species, e.g. Dictyostelium mucoroides, produce a stalk continuously during slug migration, while a few species, e.g.

Signal transduction in the cellular slime molds [PDF]

Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 1982
Intercellular communication in higher organisms depends on the central nervous system and hormones. Simple organisms such as the cellular slime molds communicate intercellularly only by using hormone-like signals. The most intensively studied species of the cellular slime molds is Dictyostelium discoideum.

Myxomycetes of the litter

Acta Mycologica, 2014
The litter is a useful substratum for developmen t of the Myxomycetes. On the basis of our own observations and literature data 50 species of the slime molds were found occuring on litter. Species from the order Physarales (33 species) are dominant.

Myxomycetes of the rotting cherry wood

Acta Mycologica, 2014
During the years 1974-1975 on rotting cherry wood development of some Myxomycetes was observed. In that time 6 species of slime molds were noted: Arcyria denudata, Comatricha typhoides, Dyctidium cancellatum, Lycogala epidendrum, Physarum cinereum ...

Conserved Subgroups of the Plant-Specific RWP-RK Transcription Factor Family Are Present in Oomycete Pathogens

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Nitrogen is a major constituent of proteins, chlorophyll, nucleotides, and hormones and has profound effects on plant growth and productivity. RWP-RK family transcription factors (TFs) are key regulators that bind to cis-acting elements in the promoter ...

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.
