We have previously shown that the dithiocarbamate fungicide, Mancozeb, strongly induces lacZ reporter expression from an endogenous heat-shock promoter (hsp16) in the PC72 transgenic strain of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Such evidence of organismal stress, in a nontarget species at subappli
## Abstract The toxicities of 4 shortβchain alcoholsβnamely methanol, ethanol, __iso__βpropanol and __iso__βbutanolβwere compared in the nematode __Caenorhabditis elegans__ using several different ecotoxicological endpoints. Rangeβfinding tests were conducted using transgenic PC161 worms carrying a
