Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To review studies of mutagen-induced colony sectoring which demonstrate that UV light and EMS produce delayed mutational events in Chinese hamster ovary cells. METHODS AND RESULTS: Since the late 1940s, it has been known that the treatment of a single bacterial or yeast cell with mutagenic agents produces complete mutant colonies (pures) and colonies composed of both mutant and non-mutant cell types...
