Abstract
Drosophila melanogaster males were exposed to homogeneous magnetic fields of intensities of 13,000 to 37,000 Gauss as eggs, larvae, pupae and as adults. Sex linked recessive lethals were scored in chromosomes exposed as spermatozoa, spermatids and as spermatocytes. There was no indication of enhanced mutation induction by the magnetic fields.Keywords
