Abstract excerpt
The goals of genetic ecotoxicology are discussed and redefined. New directions in which genotoxicity "effect" studies might be pursued are outlined. Recognition of the genotoxic disease syndrome in lower animals suggests that more attention should be given to exploring the relationships between DNA damage (adduct formation, gene mutations, etc.) and its manifestation at the level of individuals. Within a given...
