1840 E. Wilson Anatomist's Vade Mecum (1842) 559 The Ovaries are two oblong flattened and oval bodies of a whitish colour, situated in the posterior layer of peritoneum of the broad ligaments.

1878 T. H. Huxley Physiography (ed. 2) xiv. 226 The female bird possesses an organ termed the ovary, in which nucleated cells, the primitive ova, which correspond with the embryo cells of the plant, are developed.

1994 New Scientist 9 July 5/1 The drug..also stops the ovaries producing the hormones oestrogen and progesterone, creating in effect an instant menopause.

2. Botany. In the flower of an angiosperm: the hollow basal part of the pistil or gynoecium, which encloses the ovules and from which the seed-vessel is developed. Formerly also called germen.The ovary is termed inferior or superior according to whether the other floral organs are inserted above or below it (see inferior adj. 6, superior adj. 5).
