Abstract

The effect of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) at low concentrations on cell cycle duration and sister-chromatid exchange (SCE) frequency was studied using meristem root-tip cells of Allium sativum L. 2,4-D induced a marked prolongation of the cell cycle. At the same time, small but statistically significant increases in SCE frequencies were observed at 5 μM and 15 μM 2,4-D concentrations. The significance of these findings in the evaluation of mutagenic activity of 2,4-D is discussed. © 1987 Academia.
