Zusammenfassung

15 Substanzen, vorwiegend Pestizide, wurden an männlichen Keimzellen vonDrosophila auf ihre genetische Wirksamkeit untersucht. Für 1.2-Dibromäthan, 1.2-Dibrompropan und MCPA konnte eine genetische Aktivität nachgewiesen werden. Halogenalkane zeigen eine klare Struktur-Wirkungsbeziehung.
