Open AccessLeaps and lulls in the developmental transcriptome of Dictyostelium discoideum
Development of the soil amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum is triggered by starvation. When placed on a solid substrate, the starving solitary amoebae cease growth, communicate via extracellular cAMP, aggregate by t...

Open AccessConserved developmental transcriptomes in evolutionarily divergent species
Evolutionarily divergent organisms often share developmental anatomies despite vast differences between their genome sequences. The social amoebae Dictyostelium discoideum and Dictyostelium purpureum have similar...
