With prolonged exposure to 50 R/day radiation, the incidence of chromosomal aberrations in rat bone marrow cells increases disproportionately to the accreted dose. The slower increment of aberrations with increase in cumulative dosage is due to a decrease in chromosomal aberrations in the intervals between daily irradiation sessions. The rate of this decline in incidence of aberrations is determined chiefly by the rate of proliferation of myelokaryocytes.
