摘要：

In May 1997 the MRC Institute for Environment and Health hosted an expert, multidisciplinary workshop on the ecological effects of endocrine disruption, focusing on reproductive function, to identify research priorities. Particular objectives were to discuss the potential for effects at organisational levels higher than that of the individual (i.e. population, community and ecosystem levels), the range of taxa that may plausibly be susceptible, and our current knowledge of the environmental fate and behaviour of potential endocrine disrupters. The conclusions of this workshop are reported, with particular reference to a research strategy developed to ultimately address the significance of endocrine disruption at the level of the population. Specific research project areas considered to be of particular importance to the UK situation are also presented. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. ALI rights reserved.
