EVALUATION OF THE COMPLEX USE OF PLANT TEST-SYSTEMS TO DETERMINE THE NATURE AND INTENSITY OF THE MUTAGENIC BACKGROUND OF THE ENVIRONMENT.

Objective: Aim: A comprehensive evaluation of the effectiveness of the use of plant test-systems as biological objects for the identification of the specifitown of the effect of mutagens on the hereditary apparatus.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: With the use of test-systems (determination of the gonadotoxitown of plant pollen grains, the Allium cepa-test and the use of celandine greater Chelidonium majus as an accumulative phytoindicator) was analyzed the ecological situation of the areas in Ivano-Frankivsk region. The samples of soil, water, generative and vegetative organs of plants were taken in the territories of the Carpathian region and tested in the following areas: ecologically safe, conditionally ecologically safe and ecologically dangerous areas.
