Cytogenetic effects of 4-r doses on the frequency of chromosome alterations in spermatogonium of 20 guinea pigs were analyzed as a criterlon of the genetic influence of small doses on mammals. Experiments showed an exceptionally high radiosensitivity of guinea pigs to small doses, indicating that cytological radiation effects depend not only on the size of the dose but also on the peculiarities of irradiated organisms. The formerly postulated theory on radiosensitivity on various types of mammals was verified. (R.V.J.)
