A rapid method was proposed to detect whether a harmless agricultural chemical can be converted into a mutagenic one by plant metabolism. The method is based on the use of Nicotiana alata cell cultures. Results obtained with five pesticides (atrazine, dichlorvos, tetrachlorvinphos, Kelevan, and maleic hydrazide) suggest that the proposed method simulates the metabolism of the whole plant. This procedure was also successfully applied to the genetic system of Aspergillus nidulans. One pesticide, atrazine, induced mutations and somatic segregation only after metabolism during cocultivation with N. alata cells.
