• The Geological Succession of Primary Producers in the Oceans (2007, background): “Complementing this, molecular clock estimates for diatom and coccolithophorid diversification, calibrated by well-preserved fossils, suggest that these groups have no long Paleozoic “prehistory” (de Vargas et al. 2006; Kooistra et al. 2006).”
• On the description of Tisochrysis lutea gen. nov. sp. nov. and Isochrysis nuda sp. nov. in the Isochrysidales, and the transfer of Dicrateria to the Prymnesiales (Haptophyta) (2013, background): “Doubt remains over whether coccolith formation was lost or never acquired in the Isochrysidaceae and whether this may be linked to evolution of life cycle type (de Vargas et al. 2007; Liu et al. 2010).”
• Biogeochemical implications of comparative growth rates of Emiliania huxleyi and Coccolithus species (2014, background): “Coccolithophores are a diverse and biogeochemically important group of phytoplankton; 40 through the production and subsequent export of their calcite coccoliths, they form a key 41 component of the global carbon cycle (de Vargas et al., 2007).”
• Coccolithophore ecology in the tropical and subtropical Atlantic Ocean: New perspectives from the Atlantic Meridional Transect (AMT) programme (2017, background): “…an important role in the exchange of both carbon and sulphur between the atmosphere and surface waters and in the downward transport of biogenic material and its’ accumulation in marine sediments (e.g., Holligan et al., 1993; Malin and Steinke, 2004; de Vargas et al., 2007; Ziveri et al., 2007).”
