Mutations Increasing Asexual Plasmodium Formation in PHYSARUM POLYCEPHALUM.
Rare plasmodia formed in clones of heterothallic amoebae were analyzed in a search for mutations affecting plasmodium formation. The results show that the proportion of mutants varies with both temperature (18 degrees , 26 degrees or 30 degrees ) and mating-type allele (mt1, mt2, mt3, mt4). At one extreme, only one of 33 plasmoida formed by mt2 amoebae at 18 degrees is mutant. At the other extr...
متن کاملInduction of spherule formation in Physarum polycephalum by polyols.
A method has been developed for inducing spherule formation (spherulation) in the myxomycete Physarum polycephalum by transferring the culture to synthetic medium containing 0.5 m mannitol or other polyols. This morphogenetic process occurred within 12 to 35 hr after the inducer was added. The mature spherules existed as distinct morphogenetic units, in contrast to the clusters of spherules for...
متن کاملPhysarum polycephalum Histones
Physarumpolycephalum is an acellular slime mould whose histones are of general interest because they allow comparisons to be made between lower eukaryote and higher eukaryote histones and, perhaps more importantly, they provide a unique opportunity for the study of histone changes in the mitotic cycle, which is naturally synchronous in P. polycephalum plasmodia, and during differentiation. Stud...
متن کاملPhysarum Polycephalum changes polyaniline properties
Physarum polycephalum slime mould can modify polyaniline (PANI) features due to its internal activity. We created networks with different conductivity made by the slime mould on PANI substrates. Thus, Physarum’s growth results in changing the conductivity state of PANI layers, providing negative and positive patterning of the samples. A spectrophotometric scanner is here exploited to investigat...
متن کاملLogical Modelling of Physarum Polycephalum
In the paper we proposed a novel model of unconventional computing where a structural part of computation is presented by dynamics of Plasmodium of Physarum polycephalum, a large single cell. We sketch a new logical approach combining conventional logic with process calculus to demonstrate how to employ formal methods in design of unconventional computing media presented by Physarum polycephalu...
