Abstract
Cellular slime mold has been used as a model for many developmental processes including cell-cell and species-specific adhesion. The organism is the subject of a number of books and countless research articles. The reader is referred to Loomis (1982), Raper (1984) and Spudich (1987) for three reviews covering all aspects of the cellular slime molds from their taxonomy to the isolation of specific proteins.
