这篇论文是对生物学家在对基因的定义达成一致方面发现的越来越困难的回应,实际上,这一概念发现自己越来越混乱。在简要回顾了这些问题之后,我们提出了一个替代概念和词语基因的替代方案--这个替代方案和基因一样,旨在捕捉遗传的本质,但它既更丰富,也更具表现力。它也更清楚地区分了有机体静态是什么(它有形地继承了什么)和它动态地做了什么(它的功能和行为)。我们提出的遗传功能因子或基因,是经典的基因/表型范式的全面扩展,但它似乎忠于当代生物学的发现,涵盖了许多最近出现的--令人惊讶的复杂--结构和功能之间的联系。
This paper is a response to the increasing difficulty biologists find in agreeing upon a definition of the gene, and indeed, the increasing disarray in which that concept finds itself. After briefly reviewing these problems, we propose an alternative to both the concept and the word gene—an alternative that, like the gene, is intended to capture the essence of inheritance, but which is both richer and more expressive. It is also clearer in its separation of what the organism statically is (what it tangibly inherits) and what it dynamically does (its functionality and behavior). Our proposal of a genetic functor, or genitor, is a sweeping extension of the classical genotype/phenotype paradigm, yet it appears to be faithful to the findings of contemporary biology, encompassing many of the recently emerging—and surprisingly complex—links between structure and functionality.
