Studies on the effects of low levels of gonadal irradiation, repeated generation after generation, on the genetic constitution of populations of mice and the genetic basis for differences in radiosensitivity of mice of different kinds are reported. Two groups of rnice populations are being used. One group, called genetically homogeneous, is descended from a single pair of an inbred strain. The other group, called genetically heterogeneous, is descended from 4 pairs, one from each of 4 inbred strains, which were crossed to produce double- cross hybrids. It was found that genetic variability for resistance to irradiation in mice is extremely large. Other results, along with characteristics of the populations being studied as possible indicators of genetic damage, are also discussed. (P.C.H.)
