Abstract

The effect of water extract of two medicinal plants, Ammi majus and Ammi visnaga on meiosis, pollen length and pollen viability were studied. Most of the treatments gave high percentage of abnormalities. The percentage of anomalies in the 1st division was higher than those in the 2nd division. The induced irregularities were: Stickiness, bridges, spindle disturbance, lagging chromosome, breaks and fragments and multinucleate cell.The two plants extracts caused a decrease in the pollen grain length and gave mild increase in the pollen viability.
