Abstract

Abstract The herbicide Basalin [Fluchloralin: N‐propyl‐N (2 chloroethyl) ‐2,6—dinitro‐n‐trifluoromethyl aniline] was found to reduce the germination percentage in both Helianthus annuus L. and Linum usitatissimum L.. Treatment with Basalin also decreased the mitotic index and increased the total chromosomal abnormalities in these crops. Chromosomal abnormalities arising due to mitotic spindle disruption were commonly observed.
