- Observation Both mistletoe species showed strong density dependence.
- Association A. vaginatum facilitated A. globosum growth on smaller hosts.
- Association A. globosum facilitated A. vaginatum regardless of host size.
- Association Previous infection by the other mistletoe enhanced A. globosum colonization.
- Association Facilitation increased both species’ populations in homogeneous, low-density forests.
- Association The opposite interaction pattern occurred in heterogeneous and dense forests.
- Observation Both species achieved stable coexistence.
