• How do organisms change size with changing temperature? The importance of reproductive method and ontogenetic timing (2011, background): “As they do not replicate by simple binary division of the adult, the progeny mass is not restricted to be a fixed proportion of adult mass and in many species, individual organisms are able to produce progeny that can vary in size (Blanckenhorn 2000; Atkinson et al. 2001; Fischer et al. 2003; Fische”
• Body size variation in insects: a macroecological perspective (2010, background): “The benefits of large body size have been widely explored, and are known to include greater fecundity in females, access to mates in males and resource sequestration advantages (Honı́k, 1993; Lighton, Quinlan & Feener, 1994; Parker & Simmons, 1994; Blanckenhorn, 2000b; Rivero & West, 2002).”
