Abstract
Sperm in inseminated females were either untreated or treated with 600, 1500, or 3750 rads of 18 Mev electrons and different types of mutation involving the paternal chromosomes were detected among the offspring. Partial or complete sex chromosonie loss increased slightly, but significantly, faster than linearly with dose; II--III reciprocal translocations increased approximately as the 3/2 power of the dose; and sex-linked recessive lethal mutations increased approximately linearly with dose. The shipes of all three curves are in good agreement with previous x-ray results. (auth)
