Effects of some DNA-ligands and of some mutagenic compounds on the induction of meiotic disomic or diploid yeast products.
Data were collected following the administration of various compounds to meiotic yeast cultures to investigate their effects on disomic or diploid induction. Epi chlorohydrin, actinomycin D, and 9-aminoacridine were unable to induce either diploidy or disomy. Ethyl methanesulphonate was active in inducing diploids, while hycanthone induced disomics. beta-Propiolactone, N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitro-soguanidine, and beta-naphtylamine were able to increase both disomy and diploidy.
