Abstract
Vitavax, a systemic fungicide was tested for its antimitotic and clastogenic effects on Allium cepa. The results obtained showed that Vitavax induces various types of spindle abnormalities, inhibits cell plate formation and exhibits antimitotic activity. Clastogenic effects of the fungicide were pronounced at a concentration of 500mg/l and above.
