- Scale insects, mealybugs, whiteflies and psyllids (Hemiptera, Sternorrhyncha) as prey of ladybirds (2009, background): “…was explained by Thorpe (1930, p. 937) and Hodek (1973, p. 215): the ‘‘rate of increase ratio between the (introduced) predator and prey was in favour of the coccinellid” and stressed also later (Hagen, 1974; Hodek and Honěk, 1996; Kindlmann and Dixon, 1999; Dixon, 2000; Hodek and Michaud, 2008).”
- It is time to bridge the gap between exploring and exploiting: prospects for utilizing intraspecific genetic variation to optimize arthropods for augmentative pest control – a review (2017, background): “…approach: much is known about its biology, covering its ecology, population dynamics, behavioural, and physiological traits (overviews in Hodek, 1973; Majerus, 1994; Dixon, 2000; Hodek et al., 2012), and the underlying genetics of several traits relevant to biocontrol has been well studied.”
- Effect of intraguild predation on the survival and development of three species of aphidophagous ladybirds: consequences for invasive species (2004, background): “In addition, A. bipunctata and C. s. brucki, which is another common species in Japan, are also likely to interact, as A. bipunctata and C. septempunctata do in Europe (Dixon, 2000).”
- A ‘Goldilocks’ hypothesis for dispersal of biological control agents (2011, background): “Indeed, this is a persistent problem in the augmentation of ladybird beetles against aphids (Obrycki and Kring 1998; Dixon 2000).”
