    The aim of the long-term research was to assess the influence of physiological, cytological and biochemical adaptations of the plants formed in conditions of extreme continental climate and permafrost on the radiosensitivity of their seed progeny. The obtained data were analyzed using comprehensive cytological and biochemical methods (author's) of the differential assessment of genome stability in reparation reactions and its overall activity. The data on the radiosensitivity of plants growing under permafrost conditions were obtained for the first time. Radiosensitivity of 50 species of wild plants in Central Yakutia was investigated and their classification into 4 groups of radiosensitivity was suggested. The correlation between the totality of biochemical properties of cells providing antioxidant and genomic protection and resistance to ionizing radiation was established.
