Multicellularity evolved multiple times in the history of life, with most reviewers agreeing that
it appeared at least 20 times in eukaryotes. However, a specific list of multicellular …

The class Myxomycetes consists of free-living protists characterised by their complex life
cycle, which includes both microscopic (amoebae, flagellates and cists) and macroscopic …

Early phylogenetic studies refuted most previous assumptions concerning the evolution of
the morphological traits in the fruiting bodies of the order Trichiales and did not detect …

Evidence from molecular studies indicates that myxomycetes (also called myxogastrids or
plasmodial slime molds) have a long evolutionary history, and the oldest known fossil is from …

Myxomycetes, or plasmodial slime molds, are a monophyletic group of amoeboid protists
whose classification is based mainly on morphological features of fruiting bodies. Although …

Myxomycetes (Myxogastrea) are found in soil as myxamoebae and are a major component
of the soil protist flora. Yet, our understanding of the drivers of myxamoebae community …

Lycogala epidendrum is one of the most widely known myxomycete species and the first-
ever discovered representative of this group. Using 687 original DNA sequences from 330 …
