• Relationships of Natural Enemies and Non-prey Foods (2009, background): “Studies of morphological, physiological, and behavioral traits associated with true omnivory are scant (see discussions by Coll and Guershon, 2002 and Eubanks et al., 2003), and the evolutionary path to omnivory has been the subject of extensive debate.”
• Expression of Bacillus thuringiensis Cry1Ac protein in cotton plants, acquisition by pests and predators: a tritrophic analysis (2006, background): “…carnivory is the rule for coccinellids, chrysopids and predatory heteropterans, omnivory can occur in these species, and direct feeding on plants or their products, such as pollen and nectar, has been considered an important life history strategy ( Coll & Guershon, 2002; Eubanks et al. , 2003 ).”
• Stoichiometry and population dynamics (2004, background): “Additional theoretical and empirical evidence supporting the idea that stoichiometric food quality favors the evolution of omnivory has been provided recently by Eubanks et al. (2003) and Denno & Fagan (2004).”
