Abstract
The genotoxic activity of 10 fungicides were tested using the DNA polymerase deficient assay. Two forms of the assay were carried out: 1) a disc diffusion procedure that measures the preferential growth inhibiting properties of the test chemical and 2) a liquid suspension that determines the p r e f er e nt i al: ki IIing of the DNA polymerase deficient strain. The second form provide to be more sensitive.
