  • Title: Magnetic field effects on mitotic cycle length in Physarum.
    Author: Greenebaum B, Goodman EM, Marron MT.
    Journal: Eur J Cell Biol; 1982 Jun; 27(2):156-60. PubMed ID: 7117262.
    Abstract:
    Large plasmodia of Physarum polycephalum were formed from mixtures of micro-plasmodia grown in shaker cultures exposed to 2.0 G (rms), 75 Hz magnetic fields and non-exposed, control cultures. The exposed cultures had been grown continuously in the field and displayed a longer mitotic cycle than the controls. Mixed cultures display synchronous mitosis and a cycle length intermediate to the cycle lengths of exposed and control cultures. The cycle length of mixed cultures varied with the proportions of the mixture in a non-linear manner. The results are discussed in terms of several models.
