The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Endophytic fungi harbored in Cannabis sativa L.: diversity and potential as biocontrol agents against host plant-specific phytopathogens (2013, background): “Further, it is highly desirable to compare the obtained ITS sequences with those from type species, when available, in order to authenticate the tentative species identification (Ko et al. 2011).”
Colletotrichum species associated with cultivated citrus in China (2013, background): “The virulence and potential threat of these species to cause disease of leaves, shoots and petals needs to be clarified (Ko Ko et al. 2011a; Ko Ko et al. 2011b).”
One stop shop: backbones trees for important phytopathogenic genera: I (2014) (2014, background): “The use of molecular data in diagnostics and systematic studies is not without pitfalls and shortcomings that researchers must consider (Kang et al. 2010; Ko et al. 2011; Hyde et al. 2013a).”
Fungal endophyte diversity and community patterns in healthy and yellowing leaves of Citrus limon (2013, methodology): “For species appearing in the top three hits, sequences of type, ex-type or ex-epitype, if available in GenBank, were used for comparison and included in phylogenetic reconstruction as suggested in Ko Ko et al. (2011).”
