/ˌmɛdəˌmɔrfoʊˈdʒɛnɪk/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: metamorphosis n., metamorphism n., -o- connective, -genic comb. form.

Etymology: < metamorph- (in metamorphosis n., metamorphism n.) + -o- connective + -genic comb. form.

1. Biology. Promoting or giving rise to metamorphosis. rare.

ΚΠ

1961 Proc. National Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 47 1819 The addition of antiserum to the interferon-inducing virus did not destroy the metamorphogenic effect of interferon preparations.

2. Geology. Occurring or produced as a result of metamorphism.

ΚΠ

1967 Internat. Geol. Rev. 9 1290 The majority [of hydrothermal ores] were formed by solutions of metamorphic origin and are metamorphogenic deposits.

1982 Internat. Geol. Rev. 24 1164/1 In spite of the overall high degree of metamorphogenic alteration of the ores, primary weakly deformed syngenetic volcanogenic-sedimentary ore formations persisted.

1999 Mineralium Deposita 34 614/1 These deposits conform best to the model of metamorphogenic metallogenesis by retrograde leaching.
