PMCID: PMC1214088  PMID: 119670

Abstract

Translocations between the two large autosomes were scored in the progeny of males that had been fed mitomycin-C. The frequencies were the same in spermatogonia sampled after 12 and 25 days and in spermatozoa stored for the same periods in untreated females.
