| Abstract: | This work surveys the genetic toxicity of benzo(a)pyrene added to soil for Tradescantia plants (clone 02). Different adaptation levels of Tradescantia (clone 02) to soil pollution with benzo(a)pyrene have been estimated. Plant adaptation was not observed at the morphological
level, but found for the physiological and genetic (with every adaptation stage) levels. The products of benzo(a)pyrene metabolism
act as auxin on plants influencing the growth of root biomass and the cell size. |
