The Ecology of Rafting in the Marine Environment. II. The Rafting Organisms and Community (2005, background): “376 with pelagic larvae as suggested by Jokiel (1990a). In these drift rows, floating items also come in direct contact with other items and rafting organisms may move between rafts, i.”
A global molecular phylogeny of 147 periwinkle species (Gastropoda, Littorininae) (2012, background): “They have been extensively used as subjects for a wide range of biological research (see reviews by McQuaid 1996a,b; Reid 1996, 2001; Johannesson 2003; Rolán-Alvarez 2007).”
Phenotypic plasticity and genetic isolation-by-distance in the freshwater mussel Unio pictorum (Mollusca: Unionoida) (2010, background): “However, extensive gene flow is predicted to prevent local adaptation (Johannesson 2003) so that these species are usually direct developers with restricted larval dispersal.”
The ecology of rafting in the marine environment. III. Biogeographical and evolutionary consequences (2006, background): “Some coral species of the genus Acropora are known to raft on pumice (Jokiel 1990a), and even though it is not direct evidence that the species included in the genetic studies (Ayre & Hughes 2000, 2004) is a rafter, it is possible that rafting mediated connectivity prevents genetic differentiation a”
