Abstract excerpt
It was demonstrated that preliminary irradiation of wheat seeds with doses of 0.10 and 0.25 Gy reduced the sensitivity to the clastogenic action of the challenge doses of gamma-irradiation at 10 and 20 Gy, but not to a doses at 50 and 100 Gy. The adaptive response (AR) was observed. It was found that the pretreatment of seeds with antioxidant (anphen and phenoxan) before the adaptive irradiation increased the AR...
