These jumping genes refers to a sequence of DNA which can change its position in the genome or the genetic constitution of an organism. She discovered these jumping genes in the Maize for the first time and received the nobel prize in 1983.

Jumping genes form a major portion of the eukaryotic genome. They are often responsible for mutations and associated with the duplication of the genetic material. They also cause the structural changes in the chromosomes like inversion, deletion and translocation which are called the chromosomal aberrations.
