DETERMINATION OF GENOTOXIC EFFECT OF BORON ON ALLIUM CEPA ROOT MERISTEMATIC CELLS
Abstract
The effect of boron on the mitotic index of Allium cepa root meristematic cells were investigated. By using the growth inhibition test LD50 value was determined first and then different doses of varied concentrations of boron were introduced to onion tuber roots. Distilled water was used as control. Since Allium cepa cell cycle is 24 hours, application process was carried out at 12
