生物结构如何获得其特定的大小和形状的问题是一个可以在很大范围内提出的问题，从单个多肽链到红杉。当然，在生物形态决定的各种情况下，会涉及到许多不同的机制，就像其他大的生物学问题一样，在有可能辨别形态决定如何工作的一般主题之前，有必要了解许多具体的情况。本文讨论了这样的情况下，即长度测定噬菌体尾巴。这是一个解决方案的主要轮廓现在已经清楚的问题，并且更精细的细节似乎可以通过实验获得。
The question of how biological structures acquire their specific sizes and shapes is one that can be asked across a wide range, from individual polypeptide chains to redwood trees. Certainly it will turn out that many different mechanisms are involved in the various instances of biological form determination, and as with other large biological questions, it will be necessary to understand many specific cases before it is possible to discern the general themes of how form determination works. This paper discusses one such case, namely length determination in bacteriophage tails. This is a problem for which the main outlines of the solution are now clear, and the more refined details seem experimentally accessible.
