Abstract

Taxol inhibited plant cell division. This was demonstrated by the inhibition of root primordia and callus initiation from mungbean *s hypocotyls. The initiation of root primordia and roots elongation were prevented by 1mg/l taxol. Colchicine (15mg/l) decreased effect of taxol in root primordia but not in callus initiation.
