Commensalisms, interactions between two species in which one species benefits and the
other experiences no net effect, are frequently mentioned in the ecological literature but are …

A systematic review of parasites, pathogens and commensals of freshwater crayfish has
been conducted. All major groups of disease causing agents have been covered including …

Ecology Letters (2009) 12: 1357–1366 Abstract Interactions between two populations are
often defined by their interaction outcomes; that is, the positive, neutral, or negative effects of …

Positive interspecific interactions such as mutualism, commensalism, and facilitation are
globally ubiquitous. Although research on positive interactions in terrestrial and marine …

Commensalism in the narrow sense can be understood as an interaction strictly neutral for
one organism and positive for the other. Neutral interaction is the absence of interaction and …

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

In this paper, we explore how supply chain theorists can engage with metaphorical
imagination to develop supply chain theory. Our main purpose was to provide additional …

In protection mutualisms, defensive symbionts protect their hosts from natural enemies,
including parasites. Protection mutualisms were historically considered rare ecological …

Symbiosis can take different forms (parasitism, mutualism, commensalism, etc.) but
boundaries between different types of symbiotic interactions are not well defined. The kinds …

A general and practical understanding of the processes that drive microbiome assembly and
structure are paramount to understanding organismal biology, health, and evolution. In this …
