[Modification of the teratogenic effect of griseofulvin by heat shock in Drosophila melanogaster].

Modification of the teratogenic effect of griseofulvin by hyperthermia was demonstrated in line Canton-S of Drosophila melanogaster. Heat shock (37 degrees C for 45 min) during II instar larvae significantly decreased the frequency of chemomorphoses that phenocopy ey mutation (eyeless, 4:2.0).
