The cytogenetic effects of the wastes of copper mine were investigated using root tip cells of Allium cepa L. The roots were treated with 10, 75 and 100 percent of copper wastes at 36 hour. Copper wastes caused some chromosomal abnormalities in root tip cells. It was found that copper wastes have a marked mitodepressive action on mitosis.
