Abstract
Application of ecological principles is urgently needed in applying pesticides because of the direct, indirect, and possible long-time effects these may have upon man, his resources, and his environment. Many examples are given showing some of these effects upon fisheries and wildlife and upon reproduction and survival.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
