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

Axion and neutrino bounds improved with new calibrations of the tip of the red-giant branch using geometric distance determinations (2020, background): “RGB/AGB tend to be long-period variables (LPV) with periods of 30–100 days [40–45].”
Variable stars in the Magellanic Clouds: results from OGLE and SIRIUS (2003, methodology): “The labels of the sequences are named in analogy to the ones found in the LMC by Wood (2000) (exceptC′, F andG).”
AGB variables and the Mira period–luminosity relation (2008, background): “This may indicate that it is an overtone pulsator and that it therefore lies on one of the other periodluminosity relations discussed by Wood (2000), although it has a longer period than any of the LMC stars on those sequences.”
