释义

allo-comb. form

Stress is usually determined by a subsequent element and vowels may be reduced accordingly.
Origin: A borrowing from Greek. Etymon: Greek ἀλλο-.
Etymology: < ancient Greek ἀλλο-, combining form (in e.g. ἀλλόχροος : see allochroous adj.) of ἄλλος other, different < the same Indo-European base as else adv. Compare post-classical Latin and scientific Latin allo- (formations in which are found from at least the first half of the 19th cent., e.g. allomorphosis allomorphosis n.), French allo- (formations in which are found from at least the first half of the 18th cent., e.g. allonyme allonym n.), German allo- (formations in which are found from at least the early 19th cent., e.g. allopathisch allopathic adj.).Attested earliest in the Latin loan allophyle n. in the late 16th cent. Before the mid 19th cent., chiefly in loans or adaptations of foreign words; apart from allotheism n. (second half of the 17th cent.), native formations are rare before that date.
1. Forming nouns and adjectives with the sense ‘other, different(ly)’, as allotheism n., allonymous adj., allogenic adj., etc.
2. Chemistry. Prefixed to the name of an organic substance to denote another substance isomeric with it (sometimes with the implication of relative instability, or of a particular structural form), as allocinnamic, allomaleic (acids). Also prefixed to other words, as allo-acid, allo-compound, allo-form.Sometimes printed in italics (often with a hyphen). Cf. iso- comb. form 2.

1886 Jrnl. Chem. Soc. 50 688 It is proposed to use the prefix ‘allo’ for the less stable of two such isomerides: thus fumaric acid might be designated allomaleic acid, or the β-trimethylenecarboxylic acid of Conrad and Guthzeit as alloitaconic acid.
1890 Jrnl. Chem. Soc. 58 1417 Both iso- and allo-cinnamic acids are gradually converted into cinnamic acid on exposure to direct sunlight, but the change takes place less rapidly in the case of the allo-acid.

1969 Science 24 Jan. 354/3 Since the configuration at the beta-carbon atom was not involved, not an antipod ( d-isoleucine or d-threonine) was formed but a diastereoisomer ( d-alloisoleucine and d-allothreonine).
2009 W. L. F. Armarego & C. L. L. Chai Purification Lab. Chemicals (ed. 6) iv. 264 When the allo-acid (m 68°) is heated at 20° above its melting point in a sealed capillary for 0.5 hours and allowed to cool slowly, Erlenmyer's iso-cinnamic acid m 42° is formed.
3. Biology. Forming compounds ending in -ploid or -ploidy, relating to possession of sets of chromosomes derived from different species by hybridization, as allopolyploid adj. and n., allotetraploid n. and adj. Contrasted with auto- comb. form1 1b.

2006 D. A. Johnston in A. G. Maule & N. J. Marks Parasitic Flatworms ii. 51/1 Some authors report that the C-banding patterns of all copies of a particular chromosome are identical, suggesting autotriploidy, whilst others report differences, suggesting allotriploidy as a result of interspecific hybridization.
