Abstract:Using the example of 2-day-old Triticum aestivum seedlings, grown in hydroponic culture, the cytological effects of pesticides with various mechanisms of the damaging were studied: the herbicides metribuzin, tribenuron-methyl, fenoxaprop-P-ethyl and the fungicides tebuconazole, epoxiconazole, and azoxystrobin. All pesticides showed a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on the development of the roots of Triticum aestivum, but did not affect the mitotic activity and did not reduce the mitotic index of root apex me… Show more
