Mutagenicity of Selected Chemicals in Yeast: Mitotic Recombination, Gene Conversion, and Nondisjunction

  • Chapter
Comparative Chemical Mutagenesis

  • 91 Accesses

At present, the term, “mitotic recombination,” is used to cover both types of recombination. In early publications, mitotic recombination has been used less discriminantly.
