It has been the main argument of this volume that there are two distinct kinds of characters in all organisms -- namely, those of somatogenic origin and those of gametogenic origin. From Wordnik.com. [Hormones and Heredity] Reference
I have endeavoured to find a case which would not be open to the above criticism -- that is, to find a character which could be considered somatogenic and which was absent in a closely allied variety. From Wordnik.com. [Hormones and Heredity] Reference
The real problem, then, is the sex-limited heredity, and we shall consider later whether in this kind of heredity also there are characters of internal as well as external origin, blastogenic as well as somatogenic. From Wordnik.com. [Hormones and Heredity] Reference
Adami remarks that Weismann would make the somewhat subtle distinction that the toxins produce these results not by acting on the body-cells but by direct action on the germ-cells, that the inheritance is blastogenic not somatogenic, and calls this 'a sorry and almost Jesuitic play upon words.
