CHROMOSOME ORGANIZATION AND GENIC EXPRESSION

McClintock, B.·1951·Cold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology

Abstract

During the past six years, a study of the behavior of a number of newly arisen mutable loci in maize has been undertaken. This study has provided a unique opportunity to examine the mutation process at a number of different loci in the chromosomes. For some of these loci, several independent inceptions of instability have occurred during the progress of this study. The types of mutation that appear, and the types of instability expression, need not be the same at any one locus. In fact, comparisons of the behavior of these different mutable conditions at a particular locus have shown striking diversity, not only with regard to the changes in phenotypic expression that result from mutations at the locus, but also with regard to the manner in which mutability is controlled.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
