Genetic and chemical differences may well mean that opportunities exist to interact uniquely with other species or that so-called redundancy is really a major positive mechanism for buffering ecosystems against abrupt change, which would enhance both short- and long-term stability.

CONT

Des différences génétiques et chimiques peuvent faire en sorte qu'elles n'interagissent qu'avec certaines autres espèces bien précises ou signifier que cette soi-disant redondance est en réalité un mécanisme positif important qui protège les écosystèmes contre les bouleversements majeurs et qui permet d'accroître la stabilité à court et à long terme.
