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

How important are terrestrial organic carbon inputs for secondary production in freshwater ecosystems (2017, background): “Other studies have directly measured the d13C values of large-sized phytoplankton, which can be separated from the seston using a variety of methods (Vuorio et al., 2006).”
Trophic interactions and consequent impacts of the invasive fish Pseudorasbora parva in a native aquatic foodweb: a field investigation in the UK (2010, background): “Due to their ability to directly fix atmospheric nitrogen and utilise dissolved inorganic carbon, cyanobacteria are typically (15)N depleted and (13)C enriched relative to eukaryotic primary producers (Gu and Alexander 1993; Vuorio et al. 2006).”
Diet-specific biomarkers show that high-quality phytoplankton fuels herbivorous zooplankton in large boreal lakes (2014, background): “Furthermore, different phytoplankton groups cannot be resolved with SI mixing models, as phytoplankton have overlapping and highly variable SI values (Vuorio et al., 2006).”
Cyanobacteria as a carbon source for zooplankton in eutrophic Lake Taihu, China, measured by 13C labeling and fatty acid biomarkers (2012, background): “Furthermore, the isotope signatures of Microcystis and eukaryotic algae are likely to overlap, although large isotopic differences have been reported for different phytoplankton groups (Bontes et al. 2006; Vuorio et al. 2006).”
