The induction of microcyst formation could be triggered in washed amoebae of the cellular slime mold Polysphondylium pallidum (strain-2) by the addition of 2 mM ethionine. Methionine at a ratio of 2:1 with ethionine would inhibit microcyst induction by ethionine. The involvement of polyamines in morphogenesis was also shown. Putrescine (0.02 to 0.1 M) induced the formation of microcysts, whereas spermidine (2 to 4 mM) was capable of causing a fourfold reduction in 0.05 M putrescine-induced microcysts but incapable of inhibiting microcyst induction by 0.08 M putrescine. Glycerol (0.5 M or 0.4 M) was also found to be an effective inducer of microcysts.
