Abstract
For decades, we have observed a major biodiversity crisis impacting all taxa. Avian species have been particularly well monitored over the long term, documenting their declines. In particular, farmland birds are decreasing worldwide, but the contribution of pesticides to their decline remains controversial. Most studies addressing the effects of agrochemicals are limited to their assessment under controlled laboratory conditions, the determination of lethal dose 50 (LD50) values and testing in a few species, most belonging to Galliformes. They often ignore the high interspecies variability in sensitivity, delayed sublethal effects on the physiology, behaviour and life-history traits of individuals and their consequences at the population and community levels. Most importantly, they have entirely neglected to test for the multiple exposure pathways to which individuals are subjected in the field (cocktail effects). The present review aims to provide a comprehensive overview for ecologists, evolutionary ecologists and conservationists. We aimed to compile the literature on the effects of pesticides on bird physiology, behaviour and life-history traits, collecting evidence from model and wild species and from field and lab experiments to highlight the gaps that remain to be filled. We show how subtle nonlethal exposure might be pernicious, with major consequences for bird populations and communities. We finally propose several prospective guidelines for future studies that may be considered to meet urgent needs.

Abstract
The organophosphorus insecticide parathion depresses the phosphorylation efficiency of mitochondria as inferred from the decrease of RCR and ADP/O ratios. The transmembrane potential (delta psi) developed by energized mitochondria, and depolarization upon ADP addition are also decreased. Furthermore, repolarization is delayed and resumes at a slower rate. The inhibitory action of parathion on phosphorylation efficiency could be related with the following findings: (1) a direct effect on the succinate dehydrogenase-ubiquinone segment of the redox chain; (2) a direct action on the ATP synthetase complex; (3) partial inhibition of the phosphate transporter.
