Individual and combined effects of Sumithion 50 EC (50% fenitrothion) and Fusilade S (12.5% fluazifop-P-butyl) on the development of pheasant embryos was studied.Eggs were treated by injection of various concentrations of pesticides into the air space on day 12 of incubation.Pathological examination of embryos was carried out on day 23 of the hatching period.Mortality rate, body weight data and morphological alterations were evaluated after the macroscopic examination.The skeletal staining method was used to detect deformities.The two pesticides used in combination moderated the toxic/teratogenic effects of individual treatment.
