- Prey suitability of western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis, and onion thrips, Thrips tabaci, for the predatory mite Amblyseius swirskii (2008, background): “In contrast, biological control has been more difficult and overall less successful in crops lacking pollen such as parthenocarpic cucumber and ornamentals such as rose, chrysanthemum and bedding plants (Sabelis and van Rijn 1997; Gerson, Smiley, and Ochoa 2003; Brødsgaard 2004).”

- Benefits and risks of exotic biological control agents (2011, unknown): “Its voracious feeding, high reproductive capacity and rapid spread, together with the availability of a cost effective mass production system, make P. persimilis a much relied on biological control agent (Gerson et al. 2003).”
