Chromosomal abnormalities in roots of aquatic plant Elodea canadensis as a tool for testing genotoxicity of bottom sediments

Effect of the Level of Irradiance on Growth and Content of Photosynthetic Pigments of Canadian Elodea (Elodea canadensis) in Model System “Water-Bottom Sediments”

“…Индикаторные показатели элодеи канадской (длина побегов, длина корней, вес побегов, содержание хлорофилла) проявляют разную чувствительность к токсикантам и характеризуются разной вариабельностью (Arts et al, 2008;Brain et al, 2012;Zotina et al, 2015). Как фототрофный организм, элодея канадская чувствительна к качественным (спектральному составу) и количественным (уровню освещенности, фотопериоду) характеристикам света, что проявляется в изменении показателей ее роста и фотосинтеза (Lichtenthaler et al, 1981;Wolff, Senger, 1991;Madsen, Sand-Jensen, 1994;Riis et al, 2012;Eller et al, 2015 (Lichtenthaler, 1987;Lichtenthaler, Buschmann, 2001 в среднем выросло по 0,7 корня на побег, при более высокой -1,2-1,8 корня на побег.…”

Cytotoxic Potential of Hydroalcoholic Extract of Annona squamosa L. Fermented Cotyledon

“…Today, many plant-derived compounds "phytochemicals" have been identified that have anti-tumour properties. For example, induction of apoptosis and inhibition of cell proliferation which finally decrease the risk of cancer make these components useful for cancer treatment (Sultana et al, 2021).A simple search on Google Scholar on 21 June 2018 with the key "Allium test" produced 3170 hits, showing the wide use of the test in a variety of different investigations.A few examples are studies examining the effects of toxic plants (Pesnya et al, 2017), nanoparticles (Yekeen et al, 2017, synthetic plant hormones such as etephon (Yavuz and Kiliç, 2017), industrial waste (Dutta et al, 2018), aquatic environmental samples (Zotina et al, 2015), etc. The lethality of the test sample in a simple zoological organism like the brine shrimp (Artemia salina) has been utilised by many researchers and has proven to be a useful…”
