Abstract:
Objective To study the genetic effects of lead on root tip cell of Vicia faba. Methods Micronucleus tests were conducted on root tip cell of Vicia faba treated with Pb2+ of concentrations of 0.1, 1.0, 5.0, 25.0, 50.0 mg/L for 12-36 h. Results The results indicated that the rates of micronucleus of lead-treated tip cell were significantly higher than that of the control (P
