ABSTRACT
In present work, genotoxicological effects of chemical pollution of an industrial region, on species of genus Apodemus [Rodentia, Mammalia], were studied. The two species were A.flavicolis and A.agrarius. In this study, chromosomal aberrations of bone marrow cells were analysed and were compared according to sex and different species in polluted and unpolluted [control] areas. Results showed that frequencies of chromosomal aberrations, including breaks, between two groups were statistically significant [P<0.005]; and also sensitivity of two sexes and two species against chemical pollutant, were not significant
