Box plot showing distribution of basal level frequency of γH2AX foci / cell in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of individuals (n = 200) from different back-ground dose groups. Dose group ≤ 1.50mGy/year is considered as NLNRA (control group). Dose groups such as 1.51-5.0mGy/year, 5.01 -10.0mGy/year, 10.01-15.00mGy/year, and > 15mGy/year are considered as HLNRA (exposed group). NLNRA: Normal level Natural radiation areas; HLNRA: High level natural radiation area
