A review of selected aspects of coccolithophore biology with implications for paleobiodiversity estimation (2005, methodology): “…life cycle with two independent asexually reproducing stages is unusual and is likely to be a key ecological adaptation of the Prymnesiophyceae, allowing the two phases to exploit discrete ecological niches and so survive in unstable environments (Houdan et al. 2004; Noel et al. 2004).”
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): “Neither coccolith formation nor the existence of a digenetic life cycle has been described in the Isochrysidaceae, whereas the Noëlaerhabdaceae contains taxa that calcify in the diploid phase of a haplo-diplontic life cycle (Green et al. 1996; Houdan et al. 2004).”
The Ecology of Harmful Flagellates Within Prymnesiophyceae and Raphidophyceae (2006, background): “A heteromorphic haplo-diploid life cycle is found in Chrysochromulina polylepis, Prymnesium parvum and Phaeocystis spp., as well as in several coccolithophorids (e.g., Houdan et al. 2004 ).”
