Mutagenic potential of permethrin in the Drosophila melanogaster (Diptera: Drosophilidae) sex-linked recessive lethal test.

Journal of economic entomology - 1 Jun 1990

Gupta R K, Mehr Z A, Korte D W, Rutledge L C

Abstract excerpt

When permethrin was tested for mutagenicity in Drosophila melanogaster Meigen with the sex-linked recessive lethal test, it was nonmutagenic under conditions of this study. The frequencies of spontaneous mutation for permethrin and the negative control were 0.135% and 0.133%, respectively; the spontaneous mutation frequency for positive control was 12.6%. The difference between the mutation frequency of...
