A mathematical model for chemotactic movement and aggregation in cellular slime moulds
The cellular slime mould Dictyostelium discoideum (Dd)is a widely studied organism. In starvation conditions, Dd amoebae aggregate into a slug-like body which can crawl some distance before forming a fruiting body. The spores at the top of the body are scattered and amoebae emerge from them to fee...
