Effect of nicotine (plant extract) on sex-ratio of Drosophila melanogaster (Meigen).

Journal of environmental biology - 1 Oct 2003

Choudhary Shamim

Abstract excerpt

Experiments were conducted by using nicotine (plant extract) for its toxic effects on Drosophila melanogaster, LC50 estimated is 2.9552 microl/100 ml. Studies revealed that nicotine affects adult emergence of males and females (sex-ratio) of mutant form (Yellow) of Drosophila melanogaster.
