Many tests are used to determine the toxic activity of miscellaneous substances, and those that are simple, fast, and inexpensive are useful for screening compounds with applications in different fields. The Cucumis sativus root growth inhibition test is an example of acute toxicity determinations. On the other hand, colchicine has been used as a herbicide to generate polyploids in plant species finally reaching the environment; for this reason, colchicine could become a point of attention in ecotoxicology. This work established that Cucumis sativus, at the colchicine binding site (CBS) in tubulin, shares 100% similarity with humans. Colchicine was docked on seven Cucumis sativus computational models of the αβ-tubulin heterodimer, allowing us to understand a possible conformation in tubulin to trigger its antimitotic effect. Furthermore, an in vitro phytotoxicity assay of colchicine-treated cucumber radicles indicated a hormetic-type concentration-dependent response with macroscopic changes in radicles and hypocotyl. These results support the highly preserved grade of tubulins in several species, and using microtubule inhibitors could require attention in ecotoxicological issues. The Cucumis sativus root growth test could help evaluate small molecules (colchicine analogs), chiefly by CBS interactions, a known druggable site, still a target in the search for antimitotic compounds.
