Bacterial symbiosis is the study of the close and often beneficial relationship between bacteria and a host organism. This interaction can range from mutualistic relationships, where both the bacteria and the host benefit, to commensal relationships, where one organism benefits and the other is unaffected, to parasitic relationships, where the bacteria harm the host organism. Bacterial symbiosis plays a crucial role in various ecological processes, such as nutrient cycling and host defense mechanisms, and has implications for human health, agriculture, and environmental sustainability. Understanding bacterial symbiosis can help in the development of new therapeutic approaches, such as probiotics, and contribute to the field of biotechnology.
