an interaction that occurs when the use of resources by two or more species-populations is enhanced when they are together, allowing them to attain sizes that they would not attain in the absence of one-another

|
Mutualism can be modeled using:
|
Lotka-Volterra framework
|
|
|
the outcome of mutualism depends upon whether:
|
the mutualism is facultative or obligate
|
|
|
Obligate mutualism can be modeled successfully, by:
|
making carrying capacities and growth rates co-dependent, and by making the isoclines non-linear
