Abstract:
We analyze the global stability of the coexisting equilibria for several models of commensalism, first by devising a procedure to modify several Lyapunov functionals which were introduced earlier for corresponding models of mutualism, further confirming their usefulness. It is seen that commensalism promotes global stability, in connection with higher-order self-limiting terms which prevent unboundedness. We then use the theory of asymptotically autonomous systems to prove global stability results for models of commensalism which are subject to Allee effects, finding that commensalisms of appr

Abstract:
Commensalisms, interactions between two species in which one species benefits and the other experiences no net effect, are frequently mentioned in the ecological literature but are surprisingly little studied. Here we review and synthesize our limited understanding of commensalism. We then argue that commensalism is not a single type of interaction; rather, it is a suite of phenomena associated with distinct ecological processes and evolutionary consequences. For each form of commensalism we define, we present evidence for how, where, and why it occurs, including when it is evolutionarily pers

Abstract:
Commensalism within anthropogenic environments has not been extensively discussed, despite its impact on humans, and there is no formal framework for assessing this ecological relationship in its varied forms. Here, we examine commensalism in anthropogenic environments in detail, considering both ecological and evolutionary drivers. The many assumptions about commensalism and the nature of anthropogenic environments are discussed and we highlight dependency as a key attribute of anthropogenic commensals (anthrodependent taxa). We primarily focus on mammalian species in the anthropogenic-commen

Abstract:
Malassezia spp are recognized as skin commensals that may be pathogenic under certain conditions. For many years, it was known as commensals but recently it has been identified causing many superficial skin infections and fungemia. There are many hypotheses regarding the pathogenesis of Malassezia infections. As there is limited data on physiology and pathogenesis of Malassezia, therefore, in recent years new tools has been evolved for Malassezia culture, detection and genetic manipulation which have revealed the ubiquity of Malassezia on skin.

Abstract:
Candida species are both opportunistic fungal pathogens and common members of the human mycobiome. Over the years, the main focus of the fungal field has been on understanding the pathogenic potential and disease manifestation of these organisms. Therefore, understanding of their commensal lifestyle, interactions with host epithelial barriers, and initial transition into pathogenesis is less developed. In this review, we will describe the current knowledge on the commensal lifestyle of these fungi, how they are able to adhere to and colonize host epithelial surfaces, compete with other members

In the middle Lower Devonian, the Pragian, reefs were very rare worldwide and stromatoporoids were rare and little diverse. As an explanation for this phenomenon, it is not sufficient that the global sea level had its low for the Devonian period during the Pragian and Lower Emsian. Therefore, three stromatoporoid-bearing reefs from the Pragian of Western and Central Europe were studied: Koněprusy in the Czech Republic, Seewarte in Austria and Zújar in Southern Spain. The following possible causes for the extreme rarity of reefs in the Pragian emerged: 1) Conspicuously high or low water

Abstract:
Candida albicans colonizes the gastrointestinal tract of up to 75 % healthy individuals. It usually cohabits the gut as an innocuous commensal. But in critically ill patients whose gut barrier, immune system and normal gut microbiota are compromised, C. albicans often transmigrates the gut barrier, transforms into an invasive pathogen and causes fatal systemic infections. The genetic transitions that drive this transformation in C. albicans have been a major focus of research and have led to the identification of key transcription factors that regulate this commensal-to-pathogen transition.

Bacteria of the Neisseria are predominately commensal, though N. gonorrhoeae and N. meningitidis are capable of causing disease. Both of these species often asymptomatically colonize humans, a trait reminiscent of their commensal cousins. The factors that shift the balance between asymptomatic carriage and disease are unknown. Pathogenic Neisseria use retractile surface structures called Type IV pili to coordinate community behavior and to initiate and sustain infection. Previously, the contributions of pilus retraction have been studied by deleting the pilus retraction motor, PilT. Recent
