• The pollution biology of aquatic oligochaetes (2011, background): “There has been some debate about this phenomenon and readers are addressed to key papers on the concept of hormesis (Calabrese and Baldwin 1998; Forbes 2000; Stebbing 2000) and its role in ecological risk assessment (Chapman 2002).”
• Insecticide‐induced hormesis in an insecticide‐resistant strain of the maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais (2010, methodology): “The detection of hormesis in the rate of population growth (and fertility) of insecticide-resistant insects reported here does not provide support for Forbes’ prediction that the overall fitness of an organism is unlikely to be enhanced by hormesis because of their independent occurrence in lifehist”
