The development of F1 progeny from mature egg cells after terahertz radiation of parental drosophila

Аннотация

The effects of terahertz radiation (0.1–2.2 THz) on the dynamics of reaching the imago stage by drosophila of the F1 progeny obtained from the crossing of irradiated and unirradiated parental individuals in different combinations were studied. A shift in the maximum emergence peak for an earlier period and a shortening of the period of reaching the adult state were found in the progeny of both sexes obtained from irradiated females. The development up to the imago stage significantly differs in the progeny of irradiated males and irradiated females in a number of parameters. It was suggested that the effect of terahertz radiation on the dynamics of the onset of the imago stage can be associated with one or different mechanisms that change the expression of the genes and signaling pathways that control the development of drosophila.
