The Geological Succession of Primary Producers in the Oceans (2007, background): “All known geobiological records from Archean rocks are consistent with an early evolution of cyanobacteria, but few if any require such an interpretation (Knoll 2003a).”
The Proterozoic Record of Eukaryotes (2015, background): “…the evolution and radiation of eukaryotes, the evolution of stem group metazoans, the origins of both eukaryotic and metazoan biomineralization (Knoll 2003), possible changes in the oxidative state of the planet’s atmosphere and oceans (e.g., Scott et al. 2008; Planavsky et al. 2014), and two…”
Eukaryotic organisms in Proterozoic oceans (2006, background): “This would create permissive ecologies in which novel (and not necessarily fitter) mutants generated by surviving populations could persist under low selective pressure, providing raw materials for evolutionary innovation (Knoll 2003b).”
Chitin and collagen as universal and alternative templates in biomineralization (2010, background): “Skeletal biomineralization requires energy and thus imposes a metabolic cost on skeleton-forming organisms (Knoll 2003).”
The rise of predators (2011, background): “…cloudii , a multicellular, sheet-like fossil whose calcareous cell walls may reﬂ ect primary (Horodyski and Mankiewicz, 1990) or early diagenetic (Knoll, 2003) mineralization; and ca. 650 Ma millimeter-to centimeter-scale asymmetric bodies permeated with a network of canals and interpreted to be…”
Carbonate Precipitation through Microbial Activities in Natural Environment, and Their Potential in Biotechnology: A Review (2016, background): “The subsequent hydrolysis of ammonia increases the pH by producing OH−, and the dissociation of carbonic acid generates bicarbonates (Knoll, 2003).”
Mineral skeletogenesis in sponges (2006, background): “In fact, the Cambrian diversification of mineralized skeletons appeared to be only a part of a broader Cambrian radiation of animal diversity, and an increased predation pressure caused by the increased animal diversity has been proposed as the factor that triggered the evolution of defensive minera”
