Conclusions …

Single-Cell PCR/RFLP analyses allow cheap and rapid processingof a high number of samples collected over large geographicand temporal scales in the pelagic realm.The molecular biogeographic patterns are relatively simpleand stable between basins.

Cosmopolitan, globally distributed species with extremelyhigh ecological/genetic plasticity do not seem to exist in the plankton.

They are in fact monophyletic groups of sister specieshaving specific, and often allopatric biogeographic ranges.

There is a significant decoupling between morphologic and geneticdifferentiations in both foraminifers and coccolithophores.
