Abstract: The sublethal effect of pesticides is an important subject of pest management. The ultimate object of the study is to promote the reasonable application of chemical pesticide in integrated pest management (IPM), also the purpose of “pest control with pesticide reduction” is achieved. Based on the published information, sublethal effects of pesticides on growth, fecundity, ecological behavior and resistance of insects were reviewed. The mechanism of sublethal effects of detoxifying enzymes and sex pheromone communication system were stated in this paper, as well as the developing prospects in future were discussed. Overall, this review aimed at offering basic knowledge of sublethal effect and application of pesticides.
