Abstract
In this work a Boron contaminated sediment from the Cecina basin in Tuscany (Italy) was considered for its possible genotoxic effects on plants. The greatest part of Cecina basin is located in the geothermal zone of Larderello, where for about a hundred years the mine activities in this area and more recently the geothermoelectric industry spilled in the Possera and Pavone creeks (tributaries of Cecina river) until about 1975. However, contamination is still present in certain areas of the basin with high level of B.File in questo prodotto:
