Symbiosis publishes the results of original research contributing to the understanding of symbiotic interactions at the molecular, cellular and organismic levels. The journal is intended introduce new or unknown symbioses for research in symbiology. This wide-ranging approach is designed to encourage and enhance interaction among researchers in the various sectors of an intriguing and rapidly expanding field. Topics of particular interest include nutritional interactions; mutual regulatory and morphogenic effects; structural coadaptations; interspecific recognition and specificity; ecological adaptations; evolutionary consequences of symbiosis; culture and other specific methods used for symbiotic research. Symbiosis publishes accounts of original studies, review articles, book reviews, meeting reports and a calendar of events.

共生發表了最初的研究成果，有助于理解分子、細胞和有機體水平上的共生相互作用。該雜志旨在介紹新的或未知的共生體在共生生物學的研究。這一范圍廣泛的方法旨在鼓勵和加強在這一有趣而迅速擴展的領域的各個部門的研究人員之間的相互作用。特別感興趣的主題包括營養相互作用;相互調控和形態形成效應;結構相互適應;種間識別和特異性;生態適應性;共生的進化結果;培養和其他用于共生研究的特定方法。共生出版原始研究報告，評論文章，書評，會議報告和事件日歷。
