Estimation of the genetic hazard of ionizing radiations to man calls for ecological and genetic study of human populations and experimental work on other mammals. An interim report is given of a long-term experiment intended to check the linearity of the mutation-rate/radiation-dose law at seven specified loci in the mouse, using low accumulated γ-ray doses.
