The efficacy of Neurospora in detecting agents that cause aneuploidy.

Mutation research - 1 Jan 2000

Griffiths A J, Brockman H E, DeMarini D M, de Serres F J

Abstract excerpt

A total of 110 agents, 109 chemicals plus gamma-rays, has been tested in a Neurospora pseudowild-type selection system for their ability to induce meiotic aneuploidy. 11 agents were positive, 47 were negative, and 52 were inconclusively tested. The system has a possible role as a short-term test for environmental agents causing human aneuploidy. The advantages of the system are its simplicity and ease of use....
