Mutualism on the edge: Understanding the < i > Paramecium –Chlorella < /i > symbiosis

by Benjamin H. Jenkins Exploring the mechanisms that underpin symbiosis requires an understanding of how these complex interactions are maintained in diverse model systems. The ciliate protist, Paramecium bursaria, offers a valuable insight into how emergent endosymbiotic interactions have evolved.
