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

Inferring the past from the present phylogeographic structure of North American forest trees : seeing the forest for the genes (2009, background): “During the last 20 years, a few thousand studies investigating the distribution of genetic variation have been conducted in different organisms including plants, animals, bacteria, and fungi (Petit and Vendramin 2006).”
Refugia within refugia: the case study of a canopy tree (Eurycorymbus cavaleriei) in subtropical China (2009, background): “…its non-recombining nature, slow evolutionary rate and maternal inheritance in angiosperms (Birky et al., 1989; Ennos, 1994; Martinez et al., 1997; Petit & Vendramin, 2007), which has allowed the identification of glacial refugia and the reconstruction of colonization histories of plant species…”
Gene flow and species delimitation. (2009, background): “[19–21]). Conifers are of special interest because their chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes have opposite modes of inheritance: mtDNA is typically maternally inherited and cpDNA paternally inherited [ 22 ].”
Identifying future research needs in landscape genetics: where to from here? (2009, background): “…uniparentally inherited, haploid markers of the slowly evolving organellar DNA (i.e., mitochondria or chloroplasts) are well suited, since they have lower mutation rates and smaller effective population sizes than nuclear loci at neutral sites (Petit et al. 2005; Petit and Vendramin 2007).”
