Mutagenic and Cytotoxic Effects of Pesticide Lambada 5EK (Lambda- Cyhalothrin) on Sweet and Hot Pepper (Capsicum annuum L.), Beetroot (Beta vulgaris) and Onion (Allium cepa) In Vivo

Mutagenic and Cytotoxic Effects of Pesticide Lambada 5EK (Lambda- Cyhalothrin) on Sweet and Hot Pepper (Capsicum annuum L.), Beetroot (Beta vulgaris) and Onion (Allium cepa) In Vivo

The aim of the present work was to study the potential mutagenic and cytotoxic effects of synthetic pyrethroid insecticide Lambada 5EK in the root meristems of some vegetables. Two concentrations of the pesticide were investigated (0.03% - recommended in agricultural practices, and tenfold lower co...
