Transgenerational genotoxic effects of gamma radiation on Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae): Implications for programs with the Sterile Insect Technique

This dataset accompanies the manuscript entitled “Transgenerational genotoxic effects of gamma radiation on Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae): Implications for programs with the Sterile Insect Technique”, currently under review in Acta Tropica. It contains the raw data and representative images used in the analysis of genotoxic and mutagenic effects induced by gamma radiation in Aedes aegypti males and their F₁ and F₂ progeny. The dataset includes results from the micronucleus assay performed on somatic, germline, and neural tissues. These data support the main findings of the study, demonstrating dose-dependent induction of heritable DNA damage and validating cytogenetic biomarkers for use in Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) programs.本数据集配套于题为《γ射线对埃及伊蚊（双翅目：蚊科，Diptera: Culicidae）的跨代遗传毒性效应：对害虫不育技术（Sterile Insect Technique, SIT）相关项目的启示》的手稿，该手稿目前正在《Acta Tropica》（《热带学报》）审稿中。 本数据集包含用于分析γ射线诱导埃及伊蚊雄虫及其F₁、F₂代后代遗传毒性与致突变效应的原始数据及代表性图像。数据集涵盖了针对体细胞、生殖系及神经组织开展的微核试验（micronucleus assay）结果。 本数据集支撑了该研究的核心发现，证明了可遗传DNA损伤的剂量依赖性诱导效应，并验证了可应用于SIT项目的细胞遗传学生物标志物。
