- Abstract
In this article, the author discusses the studies on epigenetic inheritance of transgenes, transposons, and other foreign DNA which comes from meiosis. The authors studied the position effect which is an integration site that associates in the reversal of an established silent state in plants. The authors states that the observations made in studying the activity of the silenced endogenous genes or transgenes through RNA-directed mechanism in plants have consistency with other observations.
