The effects of mergers in low mass galaxies are poorly understood. In this paper we analyze different observational evidences which support the view that mergers can trigger starbursts in dwarf galaxies. We discuss the relationships between blue compact galaxies (BCGs), dIs, dEs and low surface brightness galaxies (LSBGs) and present some evidences which favour that strong starbursts are caused by mergers between dEs and LSBGs.
