This interest has stemmed from their peculiar lifestyle and developmental properties, which were shaped by the evolutionary forces that generated multicellularity during eukaryotic evolution. More recently, the dictyostelids have gained attention due to the striking similarities found at the genomic, cellular and biochemical levels with human cells, which has propelled the species Dictyostelium discoideum to become a model system for biology and medicine in many laboratories. This book covers the latest advances in our knowledge of these extraordinary organisms with topics spanning from their evolutionary history, ecology and diversity to the recent discoveries regarding their cellular and molecular biology. 606 $aDictyostelium 606 $aGenomics 615 0$aDictyostelium. 615 0$aGenomics. 676 $a579.138 701 $aRomeralo$b Maria$01759274 701 $aBaldauf$b Sandra$01759275 701 $aEscalante$b Ricardo$01846364 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437610603321 996 $aDictyostelids$94430703 997 $aUNINA
