Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Life cycles of Amoebozoan groups related to the Dictyostelids.
(A). The Dictyostelids show four different cycles, the unicellular vegetative and encystation cycles and the multicellular sexual and sorocarpic cycles. The depiction of the sorocarpic multicellular cycle shows generalised differences between Dictyostelids in Groups 1–3 and those in Group 4. Different cell types in the fruiting body are shown in different colours. Cup cells and basal disc cells are found only in Group 4, while encystation is lost in this group.
(B). The Myxogastrids show three major life cycles, vegetative, plasmodial (or sexual), and encystation, as depicted here. In addition, not shown here, the plasmodium can turn into a dormant dehydrated structure, called sclerotium, in harsh environmental conditions, and can also be produced with haploid cells (apogametic cycle).
(C). In many species of Archaemoeba, multiple cellular phenotypes, such as amoeba, multinucleate amoeba, cyst, and flagellate are known to exist, but there is not much information about how they transition from one to another.
