How Amoeboids Self-Organize into a Fruiting Body: Multicellular Coordination in Dictyostelium discoideum

When individual amoebae of the cellular slime mold Dictyostelium discoideum are starving, they aggregate to form a multicellular migrating slug, which moves toward a region suitable for culmination. The culmination of the morphogenesis involves complex cell movements that transform a mound of cells...
