Chemotaxis in Dictyostelium Discoideum. The dictyostelids are a group of cellular slime moulds. When food (normally bacteria) is readily available they take the form of individual amoebae, which feed and divide normally. However, when the food supply is exhausted, they aggregate to form a multicell
