Induction of mutation in Drosophila melanogaster fed a hexane extract of vegetables grown in soil contaminated with partie mates from diesel engine exhaust
Trans-heterozygoiis larvae of the improved highbioactivation cross Drosophila melanogaster (ORRjflr3/ TM3, Ser females mated with mwh males) were fed with medium containing hexane extract of the edible portion of five vegetables grown in three different soil treatments for 48 hours. Tlie wing hairs...
