Polyploidisierung von Getreidearten durch Lindan-haltige Beizmittel

Mutagenicity, Carcinogenicity, and Teratogenicity of Industrial Pollutants

“…coli (Ashwood-Smith et al, 1972;Fahrig, 1974), S. marcescens (Fahrig, 1974), and S. cerevisiae (Fahrig, 1974;Guerzoni et al, 1976). In higher plants, C-mitotic effects with an increased number of polyploid cells and induction of chromosome breaks were reported by Nybom and Knutsson (1947), Poussel (1948), Kostoff (1948), D'Amato (1949, and Zeller and Hauser (1974).…”

Mutagenicity, Carcinogenicity, and Teratogenicity of Insecticides

“…In higher plants, C-mitotic effects with an increased number of polyploid cells and induction of chromosome breaks were reported by Nybom and Knutsson (1947), Poussel (1948), Kostoff (1948), D'Amato (1949, 1950, and Zeller and Hauser (1974).…”

Effects of lindane on DNA, RNA, and protein synthesis in corn roots

“…Kostoff (1949) noted stunting, cell enlargement without differentiation, and spindle inactivation in plants exposed to lindane. Both Scholes (1953) and Zeller and Hauser (1974) reported the induction of polyploidy by lindane. Simkover and Shenefelt (1952) reported that chromosome smears of the treated root tips had diminished affinity to Feulgen stain, a stain specific to DNA, and concluded that DNA was being degraded.…”
