Genetic mechanisms of formation of radiation-induced instability of the genome and its transgenerational effects in the descendants of chronically irradiated individuals of Drosophila melanogaster.

Abstract excerpt

The article is devoted to the study of the role of intracellular mechanisms in the formation of radiation-induced genetic instability and its transgenerational effect in cells of different tissues of the descendants of Drosophila melanogaster mutant strains whose parents were exposed to chronic radiation (0.42 and 3.5 mGy/h). The level of DNA damage (alkali-labile sites (ALS), single-strand (SSB) and...
