Title: THE EFFECTS OF CHLORAMPHENICOL, STREPTOMYCIN, AND PENICILLIN ON THE INDUCTION OF MUTATIONS BY X-RAYS IN DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER

Journal Article · · Z. Verebungslehre
OSTI ID:4105621

The injection of chloramphenicol, streptomycin, or penicillin into Drosophila males just before exposure to x irradiation caused a reduction in the yield of sex linked recessive lethal mutations. The effect appears to be primarily on spermatids and possibly spermatocytes. (auth)
