Brit.

/ˈmɪlk ˌlʌɪn/, U.S.

/ˈmɪlk ˌlaɪn/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: milk n.¹, line n.²

Etymology: < milk n.¹ + line n.² In sense 1 after German Milchlinie (O. Schultze 1892, in Anatomischer Anzeiger 7 266).

1. Embryology. A ridge of thickened ectoderm that appears on either side of the ventral surface of a mammalian embryo, extending from the fore to the rear limb buds, on which the mammary glands form; (also) a line representing this in post-embryonic life, the line occupied by the mammary glands.

1893 Jrnl. Royal Microsc. Soc. 304 Prof. O. Schultze finds in the embryos of pig, rabbit, mole, fox, and cat, that the first rudiment of the mammary glands is seen as a linear epithelial thickening on each side of the body... This ‘milk-line’ stretches from the anterior to the posterior limb-rudiment.

1946 B. M. Patten Human Embryol. ix. 241 Some animals (for example, the sow and the bitch) develop a series of nipples spread over nearly the entire length of the milk line.

1986 A. S. Romer & T. S. Parsons Vertebr. Body (ed. 6) vi. 153 (caption) Mammalian embryo, to show mammary ridge or ‘milk line’.

2. Agriculture. The main pipe or tube which carries milk from a milking shed to a holding tank.
