|
| Although fungi are thought of as saprotrophic or parasitic, more than one third of the known fungi are involved in mutualistic symbioses. |
|
| They did, however, readily cooperate in a simpler mutualistic situation in which there was no temptation to cheat. |
|
| Additionally, many of the collaborations were mutualistic, and therefore the continuation of the innovation was of benefit to many. |
|
| Virtually all the plants in temperate grassland form mutualistic associations with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. |
|
| Furthermore, it is likely that most herbivorous dinosaurs employed a mutualistic gut microbiota. |
|
| In this case, the interaction between humans and their natural habitat is a mutualistic relationship, i.e., one of reciprocal benefits. |
|
| Numerous co-operative and mutualistic initiatives arose in the West, even before they had received legal recognition. |
|
| The Republic recognizes the social function of cooperation of a mutualistic nature and without purposes of private speculation. |
|
| The ecological role of cleaner wrasses of the Indo-Pacific region provides a good example of the complexity of seemingly mutualistic relationships between fishes. |
|
| A mutualistic symbiotic relationship occurs when both the host and symbiont receive some benefit from the association and neither is harmed. |
|
| Certain species, for example, grow in a mutualistic relationship with fungi, forming composite organisms known as lichens. |
|
| Our desire to be totally transparent is supported by our mutualistic structure. |
|
| No dependent or mutualistic relationship has yet been identified with a utilized species. |
|
| The mutualistic arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi account for the majority of the fungi in your soil. |
|
| The Republic recognises the social function of co-operation of a mutualistic, non-speculative nature. |
|
| Black caracaras have a mutualistic relationship with tapirs. |
|
| While there may be many mutualistic relationships between plants and animals, often plants are more the victims rather than the beneficiaries of the relationship. |
|
| Do parasitic and mutualistic symbioses differ in patterns of coevolution? |
|
| According to ecologists David Hooper and Peter Vitousek, the degradation of ecosystem processes resulting from a loss of biodiversity is mainly due to a reduction in symbiotic and mutualistic interaction webs. |
|
|
|
| Many of the bacteria in question are genuinely mutualistic with their hosts, helping the process of digestion or warding off pathogenic bugs. This is scarcely explored territory. |
|
| The assistance services and the support provided by the IMA Group to people experiencing hardship reflects the mutualistic ethics of our company, thus contributing to heighten further the level of customer loyalty. |
|
| This suggests that natural disturbance regimes would have differential facilitory impacts on other mutualistic interactions as well. |
|
| Once within the pitcher structure, digestive enzymes or mutualistic species break down the prey into an absorbable form for the plant. |
|
| Genuine instance of representation and expression of the Caisses d'Epargne, the Federation is the guarantor of the interests of its members, the identity and the mutualistic values of savings banks. |
|
| Some of the species drawn into mutualistic interactions become co-mutualists, contributing as well as benefiting from the relationship, whereas others become cheaters that only exploit the relationship. |
|
| To this end, we will apply in vivo experimental evolution to mutualistic bacteria, using gnotobiotic animal models. |
|
| There is evidence to suggest that the lichen symbiosis is parasitic or commensalistic, rather than mutualistic. |
|
| Most legumes have the ability to establish mutualistic symbiotic relationships with soil N-fixing bacteria and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. |
|
| This new definition recognizes a mutualistic relationship in which both partners gain benefits. |
|
| Honeydew is a sugary excretion of carbohydrates, amino acids, and water that attracts ants to establish a mutualistic association. |
|
| Tall fescue and associated mutualistic toxic fungal endophytes in agroecosystems. |
|
| The various forms of cooperative, mutualistic and associative organisations that today form the third sector are buried in the history of human society. |
|
| These benefits may vary from one population to another, thereby causing mutualistic relationships that exist between the same species to evolve in different directions in different populations. |
|
| In this mutualistic association, the photosynthetic microbes synthesize nutrients for the fungus, and in return the fungus provides protective cover for the algae or cyanobacteria. |
|
| The last stage includes the symbionts of the photosynthetic sporophytes that are assumed to have a mutualistic relationship with the host sporophytes. |
|
| Many insects also engage in mutualistic relationships with fungi. |
|
| Generally, the relationship is mutualistic with the fungi receiving sugars and the plants benefiting from increased uptake of nutrients and water. |
|
| These interactions can be mutualistic or antagonistic in nature, or in the case of commensal fungi are of no apparent benefit or detriment to the host. |
