Recent Invasion of the Symbiont-Bearing Foraminifera Pararotalia into the Eastern Mediterranean Facilitated by the Ongoing Warming Trend
Schmidt C, Morard R, Almogi-Labin A, Weinmann A, Titelboim D, Abramovich S, et al.
PLoS One . 2015 Aug; 10(8):e0132917. PMID: 26270964
The eastern Mediterranean is a hotspot of biological invasions. Numerous species of Indo-pacific origin have colonized the Mediterranean in recent times, including tropical symbiont-bearing foraminifera. Among these is the species...

Fossil and genetic evidence for the polyphyletic nature of the planktonic foraminifera "Globigerinoides", and description of the new genus Trilobatus
Spezzaferri S, Kucera M, Pearson P, Wade B, Rappo S, Poole C, et al.
PLoS One . 2015 May; 10(5):e0128108. PMID: 26020968
Planktonic foraminifera are one of the most abundant and diverse protists in the oceans. Their utility as paleo proxies requires rigorous taxonomy and comparison with living and genetically related counterparts....

Ocean plankton. Eukaryotic plankton diversity in the sunlit ocean
de Vargas C, Audic S, Henry N, Decelle J, Mahe F, Logares R, et al.
Science . 2015 May; 348(6237):1261605. PMID: 25999516
Marine plankton support global biological and geochemical processes. Surveys of their biodiversity have hitherto been geographically restricted and have not accounted for the full range of plankton size. We assessed...

PFR²: a curated database of planktonic foraminifera 18S ribosomal DNA as a resource for studies of plankton ecology, biogeography and evolution
Morard R, Darling K, Mahe F, Audic S, Ujiie Y, Weiner A, et al.
Mol Ecol Resour . 2015 Apr; 15(6):1472-85. PMID: 25828689
Planktonic foraminifera (Rhizaria) are ubiquitous marine pelagic protists producing calcareous shells with conspicuous morphology. They play an important role in the marine carbon cycle, and their exceptional fossil record serves...

SSU rDNA divergence in planktonic foraminifera: molecular taxonomy and biogeographic implications
Andre A, Quillevere F, Morard R, Ujiie Y, Escarguel G, de Vargas C, et al.
PLoS One . 2014 Aug; 9(8):e104641. PMID: 25119900
The use of planktonic foraminifera in paleoceanography requires taxonomic consistency and precise assessment of the species biogeography. Yet, ribosomal small subunit (SSUr) DNA analyses have revealed that most of the...

The Protist Ribosomal Reference database (PR2): a catalog of unicellular eukaryote small sub-unit rRNA sequences with curated taxonomy
Guillou L, Bachar D, Audic S, Bass D, Berney C, Bittner L, et al.
Nucleic Acids Res . 2012 Nov; 41(Database issue):D597-604. PMID: 23193267
The interrogation of genetic markers in environmental meta-barcoding studies is currently seriously hindered by the lack of taxonomically curated reference data sets for the targeted genes. The Protist Ribosomal Reference...

Worldwide genotyping in the planktonic foraminifer Globoconella inflata: implications for life history and paleoceanography
Morard R, Quillevere F, Douady C, de Vargas C, de Garidel-Thoron T, Escarguel G
PLoS One . 2011 Oct; 6(10):e26665. PMID: 22028935
The planktonic foraminiferal morpho-species Globoconella inflata is widely used as a stratigraphic and paleoceanographic index. While G. inflata was until now regarded as a single species, we show that it...
