The Acrasis kona genome and developmental transcriptomes reveal deep origins of eukaryotic multicellular pathways
Abstract Acrasids are amoebae with the capacity to form multicellular fruiting bodies in a process known as aggregative multicellularity (AGM). This makes acrasids the only known example of multicellularity among the earliest branches of eukaryotes (the former Excavata). Here, we report the Acrasis...
