OPERATION CROSSROADS. CYTOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF TRANSLOCATIONS IN CORN CHROMOSOMES RESULTING FROM IONIZING RADIATION OF THE TEST ABLE ATOMIC BOMB AND X-RAYS AND OF TRANSLOCATIONS FROM OTHER SOURCES

Abstract

This report on studies of chromosome translocations in corn covers an analysis of 588 translocations at the mid-stage prophase and presents data showing similarities and differences in the character of the chromosomal disturbances resulting from the different types and dosages of radiation.
