Kenneth Raper tells how dictyostelids are isolated, cultivated,
and conserved in the laboratory; how myxamoebae aggregate to form
multicellular pseudoplasmodia; how fructifications arise by
transformation of amoeboid cells into stalk cells and spores; and
how similar cells can, under certain conditions, enter a sexual
phase. For each known dictyostelid Professor Raper includes a
complete description and photographic illustrations; one new
species is described.
Originally published in 1984.
