/ˈnænˌɪz(ə)m/

Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French nanisme.

Etymology: < French nanisme (I. Geoffroy St-Hilaire Hist. gén. et particulière des anomalies (1832) I. i. i. 162) < classical Latin nānus dwarf (see nano- comb. form) + French -isme -ism suffix.

Medicine and Biology.

Genetic or physiological stunting of growth (of an animal or plant); an example or type of this; = dwarfism n.

1899 Q. Rev. July 277 Nanism is a feature common to all animals and plants in great altitudes and high latitudes.

1923 Endocrinology 7 393 There has been observed dwarfism (nanism), which renders probable an influence of the pituitary body upon growth.

1953 Bot. Gaz. 115 69/2 Three of the ten treated seedlings were hypertrophied dwarfs, although stomatal size was not correlated with nanism.

1978 Amer. Jrnl. Bot. 65 193/2 A genetic basis for the dwarfing cannot be discounted because first generation plantings of seeds from dwarf forms have not revealed a release of the nanism after several years.
