Density-Dependent Compensation in Blowfly Populations Give Indirectly Positive Effects of a Toxicant

Effects of the toxicant cadmium were studied in blowfly populations, to test whether this abiotic factor could produce indirectly positive effects on demographic rates by interacting with density-dependent processes. A previous study has demonstrated that although cadmium is toxic to blowfly individ...
