在最近的一篇简要综述中（McClintock, 1956），描述了玉米染色体中携带的控制基因作用和在基因位点诱导影响这种作用的遗传修饰的元素类型。这些元素最初被发现是因为它们在染色体补体中不会保持在一个位置。它们可以出现在新的位置，也可以从之前确定的位置消失。在已知基因的位点上或附近存在这样一个元素可能会影响该基因的作用。这样做，它不需要改变基因座上的精灵物质的动作电位。因此，这些元素被称为控制元素。研究还表明，控制因子是分组的，每一组的成员作为一个整体系统来控制基因的作用。在本报告中，将审议在上述审查中无法讨论的控制因素的某些方面。这将有必要提及玉米中一些众所周知的基因位点，并在讨论中使用它们的符号。为了提供现成的参考，下面列出了每个基因座的相关信息。
In a recent brief review (McClintock, 1956), a description was given of types of elements carried in the maize chromosomes that serve to control gene action and to induce, at the site of the gene, heritable modifications affecting this action. These elements were initially discovered because they do not remain at one position in the chromosome complement. They can appear at new locations and disappear from previously determined locations. The presence of one such element at or near the locus of a known gene may affect the action of this gene. In so doing, it need not alter the action potentials of the genie substances at the locus. Therefore, these elements were called controlling elements. It was also shown that controlling elements fall into groups, the members of each operating as an integrated system in the control of gene action. In this report, some aspects of controlling elements will be considered that could not be discussed in the above-mentioned review. This will necessitate mention of some of the well known gene loci in maize, and symbols for them will be used in the discussion. So that a ready reference may be available, the pertinent information about each of these loci is given in the following list.
