• Allium Cepa Root Chromosomal Aberration Assay: A Review (2013, unknown): “cepa test was first introduced by Levan [3] to examine the effect of colchicines on mitotic spindles and has been in frequent usage since then.”
• Chromosome damage studies in the onion plant Allium cepa L. (2014, methodology): “After the effect of colchicine on the mitosis of Allium had been discovered (Levan 1938) it was possible to determine the number of chromosomes and their morphology in A. cepa L. (Levan et al. 1964).”
