Genetic consequences of radioactive contamination for populations of Arabidopsis.

The Science of the total environment - 1 Feb 1992

Abramov V I, Fedorenko O M, Shevchenko V A

Abstract excerpt

Populations of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. growing within a 30 km radius of Chernobyl and characterized by radioactive contamination levels ranging from 0.02 to 240 mR h-1 were analyzed for the frequency of embryonic lethal mutations in 1987 and 1988. Plots that retained high levels of radioactive contamination long after the initial exposure were characterized by a high frequency of mutant plants. Plots...
