Aim: This study aimed to assess the effects of pendimethalin herbicide, which has been used for controlling broadleaf weeds and annual grasses for approximately 30 years, on growth and DNA damage in Anium cepa root tips using root growth and the comet assays. Total pendimethalin in A. cepa root tips and the stability of pendimethalin under stress conditions were also determined by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).
