• The phagotrophic origin of eukaryotes and phylogenetic classification of Protozoa. (2002, background): “The explosive, very-late Proterozoic algal and protozoan radiations, for which proteins provide evidence, were predicted on general evolutionary grounds as the inevitable result of the origin of plastids (Cavalier-Smith, 1978a, 1982d) before rRNA trees confused the picture.”
• THE SYMBIOTIC BIRTH AND SPREAD OF PLASTIDS: HOW MANY TIMES AND WHODUNIT? (2003, background): “Cavalier-Smith (1982, 2003) has long argued that secondary plastid symbiosis is a very difficult and rare process, quite possibly having occurred only twice, once via green algal enslavement leading to chloroarachniophytes and euglenophytes, and once via red algal uptake leading to the other five…”
