Molecular and morphological methods for identifying plankton: what makes a successful marriage? (2009, background): “In some cases, genetic, morphological and reproductive isolation aspects of the species concept have been shown to be concordant with molecular data (Ortells et al., 2003; Amato et al., 2007).”
Fifteen species in one: deciphering the Brachionus plicatilis species complex (Rotifera, Monogononta) through DNA taxonomy (2017, background): “plicatilis complex in the same pond (Ortells et al., 2003) seems to be in contrast with niche conservatism given that niche conservatism would prevent co-occurrence of closely related species.”
A protein signal triggers sexual reproduction in Brachionus plicatilis (Rotifera) (2006, background): “Resting eggs can survive adverse conditions and remain viable in the sediment for decades (Marcus et al. 1994; Kotani et al. 2001; Garcia-Roger et al. 2005) and are likely a major mode of geographic dispersal (Gomez et al. 2002; Ortells et al. 2003).”
