 pollination (Clements) ; Autem'- 

 bryosperm (fyppvov, a foetus, 

 a-irep/ma, a seed), MacMillan's term 

 for PARTHENOSPERMS with the 

 endosperm the result of fecunda-

 in the same flower ; Auten'dosperm 

 ( + ENDOSPERM) ; the embryo being 

 the result of fecundation, the effec- 

 tive pollen arising from the same 

 flower as the seed (MacMillan) ; 

 Au'to-allog'ainy ( + ALLOGAMY), the 

 condition of a species when some 

 individuals are adapted for self- 

 fertilization, and others for cross- 

 fertilization, as in Viola tricolor, 

 Linn. (Engler and Prantl) ; Autob'- 

 olites (/3oXJs, a missile), the pro- 

 ducts of division of the living 

 protoplasm (Beyerinck) ; auto-

 plied to plants distributed by means 

 of their own movements (Kirchner). 



Autoch'thon (afrroxduv, indigenous), 

 an aboriginal form ; a native 

 plant, not an introduction ; adj.

 TION), self - fertilization ; auto- 

 gam'ic. autogamous, self- fertilized; 

 autogenet'ic, self - derived ; auto- 

 pelag'ic (7reXa7os, the sea), applied 

 to plankton which lives continu- 

 ously on the surface (For el) ; Auto- 

 ph'agy (<f)dyw, I eat), employed by 

 Dangeard to express complete 

 fusion of gametes; reciprocal <~, 

 or sex'ual <~, sexuality in primi- 

 tive forms of Algae, further 

 differentiated into, PROTOGAMY, 

 HOLOGAMY, and MEROGAMY ; Auto- 

 phyllog'eny (<pv\\ov, a leaf, yevvdw, 

 I produce), the production of a leaf 

 upon the blade of another ; Aut'o- 

 plast (irXa<rrds, moulded), occasion- 



ally employed for PLASTID ; auto- 

 pot'amic (Trora/tos, a river), applied 

 to Algae which have become adap- 

 ted to living in streams ; a modified 

 form of tychopotamic plankton 

 (Zimmer); Aut'osperm (airep^a., a 

 seed), a plant whose embryo arises 

 through autogamy (MacMillan) ; 

 autotroph'ic (rpo^, food), ap- 

 plied to plants which can 

 collect their own nutriment, non- 

 parasitic ; Autot'ropism, the same 

 as RECTIPETALITY, the tendency to 

 grow in a straight line. 

 Auxan'agram, another spelling of 



AUXANAGRAMME. 



Auxiliaries, used by S. Moore for 

 SYNERGIDAE; auxiliary Nu'cleus, 

 the nucleus of the auxiliary cell in 

 Drudesnaya, purpurifera, J. Ag., 

 which does not fuse with the 

 nucleus of the sporogenous cell 

 when the cytoplasm does (Olt- 

 manns) ; ~ Ve'sicles = SYNERGIDAE. 



Aux'oblast (jSXcurroy, shoot), employed 

 by Kirchner for any shoot which 

 can serve for vegetative reproduc- 

 tion. 



Av'ofonn (avus, a grandfather, + 

 FORM), the still existing stem-form 

 of RAMIFORM and PRAEFORM 

 (Kuntze). 



axial Row, the two or more first- 

 formed cells in the embryo - sac 

 (Wiegand) ; ~ Shoot, a cylindrical 

 appendage in the axil between stem 

 and leaf in Zygopteris ; it is a pro- 

 longation of the - Strand, itself the 

 stele of the main stem (Scott). 



Back-cavity, the inner cavity of a 

 stoma ; in Germ. "Hinterhof." 



bacteria'ceous, relating to bacteria ; 

 bactericidal (-cida = killer), ger- 

 micidal, destructive of bacteria ; 

 Bacte'rioblast (/JXaords, a bud), ap- 

 plied by Winkler to gelatinous 

 bodies, homogeneous at first, then 

 in succession finely-, and coarsely- 

 granular, at last becoming detached 

 bacteria ; Bacteriologist (Xfyoj, 

 discourse), a person versed in the 

 knowledge of bacteria.
