• Effect of Diatom Silica Content on Copepod Grazing, Growth and Reproduction (2016, unknown): “Diatoms are the most diverse group of phytoplankton, ranging in size from a few micrometers to a few millimeters and exist either as single cells or chains of cells (Kooistra et al., 2007).”
• Diversity and Ecology of Eukaryotic Marine Phytoplankton (2012, background): “from the apical labiate processes of their araphid pennate ancestry (Kooistra et al., 2007).”
• Transcriptional responses of three model diatoms to nitrate limitation of growth (2014, background): “Diatoms are a globally influential group of marine phytoplankton with an estimated 200,000 species on Earth (Kooistra et al., 2007).”
• Unveiling the mysteries of phytoplankton life cycles: patterns and opportunities behind complexity (2011, background): “The diplontic diatoms are thought to have arisen from a haplontic stramenopile ancestor (Kooistra et al., 2007).”
• The Geological Succession of Primary Producers in the Oceans (2007, background): “As detailed elsewhere in this volume, fossils clearly suggest that these groups all rose to taxonomic and ecological prominence only during the Mesozoic Era (Delwiche, 2006; de Vargas et al. 2006; Kooistra et al. 2006).”
• Thoughts on the evolution and ecological niche of diatoms (2021, background): “…P TS & S YN TH E S IS increases effective size and thus influences size-selective predation (Smetacek et al. 2004, Bergkvist et al. 2012), encounter volumes (Karp-Boss and Jumars 1998), and the frequency of collisions between chains, with consequences for sexual reproduction (Kooistra et al. 2007).”
• A comprehensive study of sterols in marine diatoms (Bacillariophyta): Implications for their use as tracers for diatom productivity (2010, background): “It was not until the Eocene (40,000–35,000 kyr) that diatoms became significant in numbers (Kooistra et al. 2007) and marine planktonic diatom diversity reached its peak at or immediately before the Eocene–Oligocene transition (Rabosky and Sorhannus 2009).”
