title: Test for the effects of 60-Hz magnetic fields on fecundity and development in Drosophila.
abstract: Ramirez et al (1983) reported reduced egg laying by Drosophila melanogaster and reduced survival of those eggs to adulthood when adult flies were exposed to magnetic fields. In a similar study, no effects from exposures of Drosophila to 1-mT, 60-Hz magnetic fields were found.
