Los quimioesterilizantes actúan directamente contra machos y hembras y su modo de acción parece deberse a múltiples dominancias letales que se inducen por mutación (aparición de genes dominantes) que producen severos daños en el material genético o huevos. Puede dividirse a estos compuestos en tres grupos: antimetabolitos, agentes alquilantes y grupos varios. 6, record 1, Spanish, - quimioesterilizante
