    Abstract:
    After irradiation in a dose 4 Gy female mice of CBA and C57Bl/6 (female CBA during 18-23 days, female C57Bl/6 - 4-10 days) secretes with urine volatile components (chemosignals) which possess higher, than secretes intact females, attractiveness for intact males the same strains irrespective of a genotype. When estimation relative attractiveness postradiation secretes female mice CBA and C57Bl/6 intact males prefer chemosignals singenic (genetically identical) females during 1-23 day after irradiation. Observed olfactorial reaction male mice more differ from norm. In which males prefer chemosignals of allogenic (with a strange genotype) females. This disturbances identifed as postradiation reversion attractiving males of chemosignals, dependent on the genotype of females. Typical for norm chemosignalisation at females restored for 43 days after the irradiation. The mechanism and biological advisability of this phenomenon are discussed.
