Abstract:Methomyl is a carbamate pesticide that is frequently applied to crops all over the world. This research aims to evaluate the Pisum sativum L mitotic process and potential genotoxicity. The Cell Proliferation Kinetics (CPK) frequencies demonstrated changes in kinetics of mitotic process, and study of Mitotic Index (MI) demonstrated that methomyl had cytotoxic properties. In fact, the telophases ratio dropped at 0.1% to 0.5% methomyl treatment, while there was an increase in prophases, metaphases, and anaphases … Show more
