Spatial mapping reveals multi-step pattern of wound healing in Physarum polycephalum
2017
Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics
Wounding is a severe impairment of function, especially for an exposed organism like the network-forming true slime mould Physarum polycephalum. The tubular network making up the organism's body plan is entirely interconnected and shares a common cytoplasm. Oscillatory contractions of the enclosing tube walls drive the shuttle streaming of the cytoplasm. Cytoplasmic flows underlie the reorganization of the network for example by movement toward attractive stimuli or away from repellants. Here,
