Summary:
A mutualistic relationship
between species in an ecosystem allows for the ecosystem to thrive, but the
lack of this relationship could lead to the collapse of the entire system. New
research reveals that interactions between relatively small organisms are
crucial to mutualistic relationships in an ecosystem dominated by much larger
organisms, including trees and elephants.
