[ad. G. phänogenetik (V. Haecker Entwicklungsgeschichtliche Eigenschaftsanalyse (1918) i. 4): see phen-, pheno-, genetic a., and -ic 2. Cf. next.
Haecker previously called it phänogenese (Zeitschr. f. induktive Abstammungs- und Vererbungslehre (1915) XIV. 260).]
(See quots.)
1938R. Goldschmidt Physiol. Genetics ii. 23 It becomes imperative to know the details of development that distinguish the mutant types from the wild type. Studies of this type have been called..phenogenetics, a term that is not necessary but is sometimes useful. 1962I. H. Herskowitz Genetics xxx. 262/2 How does the mutant change normal development to produce the new morphological result? The answer to the latter question deals with learning how phenotypes (of any type) come into being via gene action, and is the subject of phenogenetics, a study which is of broader scope than developmental genetics. Ibid. 269 Phenogenetics starts out as a study of the developmental genetics of morphology. |
