Host-microbe Specificity

Host-Microbe Specificity is a biological construct that denotes the degree to which a molluscan host forms selective, often evolutionarily significant associations with particular microbial symbionts, distinguishing it from generalist symbiotic interactions by the uniqueness and fidelity of the host-symbiont relationship.
