The role of dose rate (DR) on biological effects of ionizing radiation is an area of significant research focus and relevant to environmental exposures. The present investigation was aimed to examine the direct relationship between viability and genotoxicity in Drosophila melanogaster, induced by gamma rays in a range of doses from 2 to 35 Gy administered at three different DR. Results indicated that larval-adult viability was reduced in relation to dose but not DR. No marked differences were found in the LD50 produced by differing DR tested. Frequencies of somatic mutation and recombination increased in direct correlation with dose and DR. Data demonstrate the importance of determination of the relationship between viability and genotoxicity induced by DR in in vivo systems for toxicological and radioprotection studies.
