Popis:	One aspect of radiation biology which has received scant attention is the effect of radiations upon natural populations. There is a possibility that such populations may be exposed to such influences in the future; namely, from the release of radioactive wastes in a large scale nuclear power program. Therefore, it seemed desirable to start accumulating basic data on the effects of known dosages of radiation upon natural populations in their native substrate. This paper deals with the lethal effects of gamma radiation upon segments of a natural microbial population, an experiment which is part of an overall ecological study on an entire natural population. 18 references, 1 figure, 3 tables.
