There’s a beautiful example of symbiotic mutualism playing out in our oceans: the pairing of the great goby fish and pistol ...

Endosymbiotic relationships -- in which one organism lives within another -- are striking examples of mutualism, and can often significantly shape the biology of the participant species. In new ...

I’ve always loved the concept of symbiosis as a beneficial relationship between two organisms. That is the example we use in our fourth grade winter adaptation program with the Clark’s nutcracker and ...

Generally speaking, symbiotic relationships are arrangements that are mutually beneficial to both organisms. One example of a typical animal-animal symbiotic relationship is that between sharks and ...

Paleozoic marine ecosystems were marked by a diverse array of symbiotic interactions that have left a lasting imprint on the evolutionary history of life. These associations, ranging from mutualistic ...

Ecological theory and observational evidence suggest that symbiotic interactions such as cleaning symbioses can shift from mutualism to parasitism. However, field experimental evidence documenting ...

When we think of different species interacting in nature, we might tend to think of predators and prey. But there are many other connections in our ecosystems that go beyond that. As organisms evolve ...

Scientists highlighted a novel role for reactive oxygen species (ROS) in a symbiotic association between a filamentous fungus and a grass. They isolated the fungal gene responsible for the production ...

Gregory Moore does not work for, consult, own shares in or receive funding from any company or organization that would benefit from this article, and has disclosed no relevant affiliations beyond ...

Microbial symbiosis is integral to plant growth and reproduction, but its contribution to global patterns of plant distribution is unknown. Legumes (Fabaceae) are a diverse and widely distributed ...
