title: [Radiation-induced changes in the genome of pine seeds, forming under conditions of chronic irradiation in the Chernobyl exclusion zone].
abstract: Comparative study of long-term existing genome damages in the chronically irradiated pine seeds from different parts of Chernobyl zone have been performed by a pulsed field gel electrophoresis and hydroxyapatite chromatography. Some differences were established for DNA degradation kinetic from protoplasts with various accumulated doses of irradiation. Results obtained could testify the existence of long-living changes in the experimental plants genome.
