    Area of Science:

    • Environmental Science
    • Genetics
    • Botany

    Background:

    • Conifers exhibit high radiosensitivity, making them ideal bioindicators for radiation pollution.
    • The Chornobyl nuclear power plant exclusion zone provides a unique environment for studying radiation effects on plants.
    • Previous research documented morphological abnormalities in gymnosperms due to irradiation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review accumulated information on the genetic basis of radiation-induced morphological abnormalities in gymnosperms.
    • To analyze recent molecular biological and genetic findings on chronic irradiation effects in Chornobyl's coniferous plants.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of existing research.
    • Analysis of genetic and molecular data from studies in the Chornobyl exclusion zone.

    Main Results:

    • Morphological abnormalities in gymnosperms are linked to their genetic nature following irradiation.
    • Recent studies highlight molecular genetic effects of chronic radiation exposure on coniferous plants.

    Conclusions:

    • Conifers remain crucial for understanding radiation pollution impacts.
    • Updated molecular data enriches our knowledge of plant responses to long-term radiation exposure in contaminated environments.
