Here, a plasmodium was kept in low temperatures (4-15C) for many days. Under this condition, the slime mold did not migrate, and only when the temperature was increased, it decided to migrate again. At this point I decided to make a timelapse to inspect the strange structures that had formed. Physarum is typically yellow, but will turn orange when forming sclerotia (cysts). What I think happened here is that the slime mold was in the process of forming sclerotia, but then turned back.<br /> <br /> The weird structures dissapeared within an hour, returning to normal morphology.<br /> <br /> Time lapse recorded on Canon 40D with canon macro lens. Images span around 2.5 hours.
