| the mutation frequency of drosophila melanogaster populations living under conditions of increased background radiation due to the chernobyl accident. | one of the problems facing the program in the wake of the chernobyl accident is the estimation of genetic damage to plants and animals. special attention was directed to studying the influence of radioactive pollutants at the accident site by means of an appropriate test system, using standard genetic subjects. the present study describes such investigations. levels of persistent genetic damage in natural populations of drosophila melanogaster found in the vicinity of the chernobyl accident site ... | 1992 | 1574703 |
