Abstract excerpt
When experimental P + M populations were exposed to chronic gamma-irradiation (0.31 mGy/h), the highest instability level of the singed-weak (sn(w)) locus was observed in F3-F10 with a subsequent decrease and stabilization of the mutation rate. The sn(w) mutation rate was within the range of spontaneous variation in conditions of P-M hybrid dysgenesis and irradiation of males of the Harwich laboratory strain with...
