Resumo: Several tests are available for detecting mutagenic and recombinogenic products in fungi. Since fungi are eukaryotic, these tests permit the detection of substances that produce chromosomal aberrations, or that are recombinogenic. We have developed a new method for testing substances that affect fungal stability using a duplication strain of Aspergillus nidulans and circular statistics for data analysis. The fungus was inoculated on the center of Petri dishes and the substance to be tested was applied to a defined area of the dish. Position of resulting sectors was measured by an angle and the data were analyzed by the Rayleigh test. Extensive testing with different compounds showed this method to be rapid and efficient for screening recombinogenic substances.
