During the last decade, the paradigm that low toxicant doses often have stimulatory effects on plants has become widely accepted. At the same time, low toxicant doses of metal salts have been observed to inhibit the growth of the most vigorous seedlings of a population in vitro, although mean plant size has remained unaffected. We hypothesized that this kind of selective low-dose toxicity is no...

In this study, in vitro and vivo genotoxic effects of Bifenthrin (BIF), an important insecticide used agricultural production, storage processing, were investigated. The genoprotective properties purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.) against the BIF also determined by using methanol (POmet) extract plant. experiments performed with somatic mutation recombination test (SMART) Drosophila melanogaster....
