Ecological facilitation or probiosis describes species interactions that benefit at least one of the participants and cause harm to neither.[1] Facilitations can be categorized as mutualisms, in which both species benefit, or commensalisms, in which one species benefits and the other is unaffected.[1][2][3][4][5] This article addresses both the mechanisms of facilitation and the increasing information available concerning the impacts of facilitation on community ecology.
