abstract：:Thermotaxis by individual amoebae of Dictyostelium discoideum on a temperature gradient is described. These amoebae show positive thermotaxis at temperatures between 14 degrees C and 28 degrees C shortly (3 hr) after food depletion. Increasing time on the gradient reduces the positive thermotactic response at the lowe...
