Abstract:Over the past century, man-made electromagnetic fields (EMF) have changed the
natural environment, representing one of the most common and rapidly
increasing environmental factors as technology advances. Numerous studies of
biological effects of exposure to EMF have been performed on Drosophila
during the last 30 years, showing contrasting results. In an attempt to
determine whether EMF exposures might affect the development of Drosophila,
the present study examines phenotypic variations thro… Show more
“…Odemer and Odemer [7] discovered that mobile phone radiation (900 MHz RF-EMF) reduced the hatching ratio of the honeybee queen (Apis mellifera) up to 44%; however, mating success was not influenced. Several authors have described that extremely low EMF (50 Hz) significantly increased the wing size with the opposite directional asymmetry in Drosophila subobscura and Drosophila melanogaster [8,9]. In addition,…”
