Abstract excerpt
The genetic activities of 4CMB, 4HMB and BC were assayed as regards the induction of somatic alterations in gene expression on an unstable w+ locus with an intragenic TE and all the simultaneously induced germinal mutations on the X-chromosome carrying this locus. The compounds were applied topically in solution at equimolar doses on late embryos and newly hatched larvae. The somatic events were scored as...
