Tripartite symbiosis is a type of symbiosis involving three species. This can include any combination of plants, animals, fungi, bacteria, or archaea, often in interkingdom symbiosis.

Ants[edit]

Fungus-growing ants[edit]

Ants of Attini cultivate fungi. Microfungi, specialized to be parasites of the fungus gardens, coevolved with them.[1]

Allomerus-Hirtella-Trimmatostroma[edit]

Allomerus decemarticulatus ants use Trimmatostroma sp. to create structures within Hirtella physophora.[2][3] The fungi are connected endophytically and actively transfer nitrogen.[4]

Lichen[edit]

The mycobiont in a lichen can form a relationship with both cyanobacteria and green algaeasphotobionts concurrently.[5][6][7]

Legumes[edit]

Rhizobia are nitrogen-fixating bacteria that form symbiotic relationships with legumes. Sometimes, this is aided by the presence of a fungal species.[8] This is most effective in undistributed soil.[9] The presence of mycorrhizae can improve the rhizobial-liquorice nutrient transfer in droughts.[10] Soybeans in particular can improve their ability to withstand soil salinity with the presence of both rhizobium and mycorrhizae.[11]
