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

Microbial phytase activity and their role in organic P mineralization (2015, background): “Two enzymes are involved in the dephosphorylation of IP6 and sequentially hydrolyze inositol hexakisphosphates to various lowerorder esters including inositol monoesters (Hayes et al. 1999; Vats & Banerjee 2004).”
Response of Vicia faba L. to metal toxicity on mine tailing substrate:Geochemical and morphological changes in leaf and root (2009, background): “As soon as plants are exposed to stress such as metals, part of the phytic acid is transported in the vacuoles where it is linked to cations such as metals (Vats and Banerjee, 2004) and the other part is secreted in the intercellular spaces.”
Review: Supplementation of phytase and carbohydrases to diets for poultry (2011, background): “Their preferred molecule for the removal of the phosphate group is, however, a fully phosphorylated PA followed by penta-, tetra-, tri-, di and mono-esters of inositol in descending order of preference (Wyss et al. 1999; Lassen et al. 2001; Vats and Banerjee 2004).”
ENHANCEMENT OF BIOAVAILABLE MICRONUTRIENTS AND REDUCTION OF ANTINUTRIENTS IN FOODS WITH SOME PROCESSES (2018, background): “It is the major storage form of phosphorous comprising 1–5% by weight in cereals, nuts and legumes (Vats and Banerjee, 2004).”
