title: Absence of mutagenic effects of morphine in Drosophila.
abstract: Morphine hydrochloride was tested for its ability to induce sex-linked recessive lethal mutations, II--III translocations or dominant lethal mutations, in Drosophila melanogaster. The results provide no evidence for the induction of any of these types of genetic damage in this system
