symbiont \Prononciation ?\

  1. (Biologie) Symbiote.
    • “Bacterial symbionts have been cropping up in various bivalve families,” says John Taylor at London’s Natural History Museum, who was not a member of the expedition. “It’s only since the early 1980s that we recognised that bivalves have bacterial symbionts at all.” Finding them in the family that K. polythalamia belong to as well expands this relationship. — (Lef Apostolakis, First living example of giant ancient mollusc found in the wild, The New Scentist le 17 avril 2017)
