[Results of a cytogenetic examination of population groups with intensive and limited use of pesticides].
Cytogenetic examination was carried out in two representative groups of teenagers living in zones with intense and limited use of pesticides. The average frequency of chromosome aberrations in the experimental zone was 1.35%, which exceeded significantly that in the control group. The found cytogenetic effect shows a potential genetic hazard of intense use of pesticides for the population.
