1889E. B. Poulton et al. tr. Weismann's Ess. Heredity vii. 412 ‘Acquired characters’..we might also call..‘somatogenic’..; while all other characters might be contrasted as ‘blastogenic’, because they include all those characters in the body which have arisen from changes in the germ. Ibid. 413 Among the blastogenic characters, we include not only all the changes produced by natural selection operating upon variations in the germ, but all other characters which result from this latter cause. 1912A. Dendy Outl. Evol. Biol. xi. 157 Blastogenic modifications are from their very nature as attributes of the germ cells handed on by heredity. 1966Immunology X. 283 An intrinsic difference may exist in the blastogenic potential of adult rabbit and rat thymus glands. |
