Bot. 23 49 Haecker has proposed the word Syndesis to apply to the conjugation or association of the homologous parental chromosomes. 1912 Jrnl. Exper. Zool. 13 348 A number of writers have suggested that the term synapsis..should be abandoned in favour of some less ambiguous word (such as Haecker's term ‘syndesis’) because it has so frequently been applied to the contraction-figure (‘synizesis’ of McClung). I am, however, in favor of the retention of the word, for the ambiguity has arisen simply through a misunderstanding of Moore's meaning. He applied the term ‘synaptic phase’, or ‘synapsis’, to the series of changes following the last diploid division..in the course of which the apparent number of chromosomes is reduced to one-half. 1925 E. B. Wilson Cell (ed. 3) vi. 503 It is now widely held that reduction is initiated by a preliminary process or synapsis or syndesis in the course of which the chromosomes conjugate.
