| Abstract |
Cytotoxicity, measured by seed germination and seedling survival, and the clastogenic potential of platinum diaminodinitrodichloride were evaluated in pear millet (Pennisetum americanum (k) Schum). The study was conducted under controlled climatic conditions. Presoaked seed of pearl millet were treated with cis-platinum diaminodinitrodichloride, and with maleic hydrazide as a positive control in the study. The frequency of trisomy induced by diaminodinitrodichloride in the pollen mother cells of the tester plants was roughly equivalent to that induced by jaleic hydrazide. The chiasma frequency between trisomics was found to be independent of chromosomal length. |
