• Preference-performance of a generalist predatory ladybird: A laboratory study (2005, background): “In ladybirds, the individual fecundity function is determined by senescence (Dixon and Agarwala, 2002; Kindlmann et al., 2001).”
• Ecology and biological control application of multicoloured Asian ladybird, Harmonia axyridis: A review (2006, background): “2004 ), as also observed in other ladybirds (Dixon & Agarwala 2002 ; Omkar & Pervez 2002 ; Pervez & Omkar 2004 ).”
• On the assessment of prey suitability in aphidophagous Coccinellidae (2005, background): “Since fecundity declines quite steeply with adult age (Dixon & Agarwala, 2002), measurements of the quantity and fertility of eggs produced by a series of females over a fixed period in early adult life is likely sufficient to assess relative prey suitability for adults.”
