According to the definition, plasmodial slime mold consist of a "single cell" with thousands of nuclei. How would such a unique type of cell response to viral infection (if any)? Google search yield nothing.

3$\begingroup$ since all known cells are vulnerable to viruses I'm gonna guess yes. and slime molds are only "a single cell" in the same sense fungi are which also have multi-nucleated cells. $\endgroup$ – John Feb 27 '20 at 2:10

1$\begingroup$ Why do you think having multiple nuclei would have an effect on viral infection? The motivation for your question is unclear to me. $\endgroup$ – David Feb 27 '20 at 9:03
