Abstract

In non-modern biocultures, contextual human technicity has played a key role in shaping the behaviors and the morphology of non-human species, which in return has simultaneously modulated human morphology and behavior: behavior affords behavior. Studies intersecting anthropology and ecology have framed this process as a biological feedback in which species co-evolve through the constitution of biocultural diversification, thus producing negative entropy. Taking in consideration the holobiont concept –which clarifies that individual organisms are biomolecular networks of associated microorganisms– the present work explore the role of microorganisms in the evolution of animals and plants and the role of intentionality in the modulation of ecosystemic plasticity.
