Abstract excerpt
In the ad-3 forward-mutation test, hydrogen peroxide was at best a weak mutagen in nongrowing conidia from a DNA repair-proficient heterokaryon (H-12, uvs-2+/uvs-2+) but was a moderate mutagen in nongrowing conidia from a DNA-repair-deficient heterokaryon (H-59, uvs-2/uvs-2) over a narrow range of high concentrations. H-59 also was more sensitive than H-12 to the killing activity of hydrogen peroxide at high...
