Definition of mutualism in biology
, 2021 Mutualism, or interspecific cooperation, is the way in which organisms of different species exist in a relationship where each benefits from the activity of the other. Mutualism as the term was first introduced by Pierre Joseph Van Beneden in his 1876 book Animal Parasites and Messmates.

The biology and chemistry of a mutualism between a soil bacterium and a mycorrhizal fungus [PDF]
Current BiologyArbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi (e.g., Rhizophagus species) recruit specific bacterial species in their hyphosphere. However, the chemical interplay and the mutual benefit of this intricate partnership have not been investigated yet, especially as it involves bacteria known as strong producers of antifungal compounds such as Bacillus velezensis. Here,

The Central Symbiosis of Molecular Biology: Molecules in Mutualism [PDF]
Journal of Molecular Evolution, 2017 As illustrated by the mitochondrion and the eukaryotic cell, little in biology makes sense except in light of mutualism. Mutualisms are persistent, intimate, and reciprocal exchanges; an organism proficient in obtaining certain benefits confers those on a partner, which reciprocates by conferring different benefits. Mutualisms (i) increase fitness, (ii)

Suffering in evolutionary biology and Christian theology: Mutually exclusive notions?
Theologia Viatorum, 2023 The question of suffering, specifically that experienced by human beings, has been contentious in the discourses of biology and religion. The dilemma, especially in the Christian faith tradition has been to reconcile suffering with the idea of a benevolent deity in whose image humans are believed to have been created.

A Mutual Interaction Between GSTP1 and p53 Improves the Drug Resistance and Malignant Biology of Pancreatic Cancer [PDF]
Cancer ScienceABSTRACTGlutathione S‐transferase P1 (GSTP1), a classic tumor biomarker, plays a controversial role in cancer progression. However, its specific role in pancreatic cancer (PC) has rarely been investigated. In the present study, we investigated the function and relationship between GSTP1 and mutant/wild‐type p53 (mtp53/wtp53) in PC in vitro and in vivo.
