The present paper deals with the genotoxicity assessment of five partially tolerant and five non-tolerant accessions of Hordeum vulgare (barley) for the heavy metals arsenic and selenium in combination. The genotype dependent response was studied using ischolar_main meristem cytology. These two heavy metals in combination influenced mitotic division inducing various kinds of anomalies.
