The globally distributed genus Alexandrium: multifaceted roles in marine ecosystems and impacts on human health (2012, background): “Although sharing the same genetic material, the cells of different life cycle stages within a population have important and different functions, but the environmental and/or internal signals that induce transition between those stages are still largely unknown (von Dassow and Montresor, 2011).”
Buried alive – germination of up to a century-old marine protist resting stages (2011, background): “Resting stages are part of the life cycle of many planktonic organisms (Marcus & Boero 1998; von Dassow & Montresor 2011), notably resting cysts of dinoflagellates (Dale 1983) and spores or resting cells of diatoms (McQuoid & Hobson 1996).”
Genetic diversity and evolution in eukaryotic phytoplankton: revelations from population genetic studies (2017, background): “Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/plankt/article-abstract/39/2/165/2929413 by guest on 28 July 2018 example, whole-genome sequencing showed that oceanic subpopulations of the cosmopolitan coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi lack genes essential for recombination (Von Dassow et al., 2015), sugge”
