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

Cosmopolitan microbes and their cryptic species (2005, unknown): “Striking examples of identical SSU rRNA genes of several planktonic protists (foraminifera and a dinoflagellate) collected from subantarctic and subarctic waters, respectively, have recently been published (Darling et al. 2000, Montresor et al. 2003).”
Biogeography and dispersal of micro-organisms: a review emphasizing protists (2006, background): “Montresor et al. (2003b) performed morphological and genetic investigations on several populations of the cosmopolitan marine species Scrippsiella trochoidea.”
The Ubiquity of Small Species: Patterns of Local and Global Diversity (2004, background): “Other marine protists are confined to cold seas or to porous sea ice, but identical species occur in the Arctic and Antarctic regions (Montresor et al. 2003).”
Pigment-based chloroplast types in dinoflagellates (2012, background): “…has usually been reported in new descriptions of dinoflagellates (e.g. Fraga et al. 1995, 2008, 2011, Elbrächter & Schnepf 1996, Bolch et al. 1999, Daug - bjerg et al. 2000, Montresor et al. 2003, de Salas et al. 2003, 2004, 2005, Garcés et al. 2006, Tillmann et al. 2009, Sampedro et al. 2011).”
An introduction to the biogeography of aquatic microbes (2005, background): “Populations of the dinoflagellate Polarella glacialis in Arctic waters differ by only 6 base pairs in the sequence of their SSU rDNA from those found in Anarctica (Montressor et al. 2003).”
