[Mutagenic action of dimethyl sulfate and N-nitrosoethylurea on the mulberry silkworm]

|January 1, 1978

Abstract:

Mutagenic effect of chemical mutagens, dimethalsulphate (DMS) and N-nitrosoethyl urea (NEU), on silkworm is studied. The effect of these mutagens have never been studied on silkworm before. DMS is found to be completely insufficient as mutagen for the silkworm, because its low mutability is accompanied with strong cytotoxic effect. NEU appeared to be of "milder" effect. Injection of male-moth proved to be very efficient. The majority of exuded mutants showed mosaic colouring of the graine.
