16S rRNA sequencing reveals likely beneficial core microbes within faecal samples of the EU protected slug Geomalacus maculosus [PDF]
The EU-protected slug Geomalacus maculosus Allman occurs only in the West of Ireland and in northern Spain and Portugal. We explored the microbial community found within the faeces of Irish specimens with a view to determining whether a core microbiome ...

Reducing the Application Rate of Molluscicide Pellets for the Invasive Spanish Slug, Arion vulgaris
Arion vulgaris are mostly controlled using chemical molluscicide products, and the detrimental environmental effects of these molluscicides can be reduced by decreasing the number of pellets applied per unit area.

A new giant keelback slug of the genus Limax from the Balkans, described by citizen scientists [PDF]
Despite their large size, striking colouration and genital extravagance, the taxonomy of the European giant keelback slugs of the genus Limax is still poorly understood.

The proppin Bcas3 and its interactor KinkyA localize to the early phagophore and regulate autophagy [PDF]
To resolve the signaling mechanisms that mediate the starvation-induced processes of Dictyostelium sporulation and encystation, we performed insertional mutagenesis on cells harboring an mRFP-tagged spore gene.

Twisted scroll waves organize Dictyostelium mucoroides slugs [PDF]
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.

Pancreatic cancer SLUGged [PDF]
In this issue of JEM, Recouvreux et al. (https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20200388) describe the role of nutrient sensing in the induction of epithelial–mesenchymal transition. Glutamine-deficient pancreatic cancer cells up-regulate classic EMT regulator Slug, providing a link between nutrient stress and metastasis.

Cell Sorting daring Pattern Formation in Dictyostelium [PDF]
Formation of the prestalk-prespore pattern in Dictyostelium was investigated in slugs and submerged clumps of cells. Prestalk and prespore cells were identified by staining with vital dyes, which are shown to be stable cell markers.

Slugs from the Arionidae and Limacidae families are classified as an important economic agricultural pests. They are omnivorous animals. Slugs are sensitive to drying out, so they are active at night and in cloudy, rainy weather.

The dynamics of predation on parasites within prey has received relatively little attention despite the profound effects this is likely to have on both prey and parasite numbers and hence on biological control programmes where parasites are employed. The
