[Monitoring of tundra vole (Microtus oeconomus Pall.) population inhabiting areas with increased radiation background].
The data of complex examinations of morphophysiological state of Tundra vole (Microtus oeconomus Pall.), the lipid peroxidation (LPO) processes and the energy exchange in their organs, the cytogenetic analysis of marrow cells and the process of multiplication in populations inhabiting areas with increased natural radiation background more 50 years are generalized. The data obtained support the existence of qualitative differences of Tundra vole subpopulations inhabiting control and radioactive nuclide contaminating areas. They allow to suppose that the process of adaptation to chronic low intensity radiation effect of Tundra vole in natural conditions involves the transition of the LPO and another regulatory systems to different level of function and is directed on population survival and homeostasis maintenance in changing radioecological conditions.
