Swarm Robot Exploration Strategy for Path Formation Tasks Inspired by Physarum polycephalum

Yandong Luo et al.

Summary: Physarum polycephalum, a unicellular and multiheaded slime mould, can form highly efficient networks without central control. Inspired by this phenomenon, researchers present an efficient exploration and navigation strategy for a swarm of robots, utilizing cooperation and self-organization to overcome individual robots' limitations. The proposed algorithm shows better search efficiency and success rate, offering potential implications for both swarm robotics and Physarum polycephalum research.

Tyrophagus putrescentiae (Sarcoptiformes: Acaridae) in the in vitro cultures of slime molds (Mycetozoa): accident, contamination, or interaction?

Dominika Michalczyk-Wetula et al.

Summary: Tyrophagus putrescentiae, commonly known as the cereal mite, is a cosmopolitan species found in various environments and known to feed on a wide range of dermatophytes, yeasts and molds. Laboratory observations have shown its interspecific relation with several species of true slime molds, indicating a high adaptive potential.

Mechanosensation Mediates Long-Range Spatial Decision-Making in an Aneural Organism

Nirosha J. Murugan et al.

Summary: The unicellular protist Physarum polycephalum demonstrates an ability to use mechanosensation for decision-making, preferentially growing towards heavier, substrate-deforming objects. It is shown that Physarum may calculate by sensing the fraction of its perimeter distorted above a threshold substrate strain, enabling long-range decisions based on biomechanical features. These findings highlight a unique method of mechanosensation and how this aneural organism adapts to its environment.
