Meaning of germary | Babel Free

Definitions

An organ that produces germ cells (sperm or eggs).

Examples

“In Asplanchnaceae, the germary is median, continuous at the distal end with the middle of the transverse horesshoe-shaped vitellary. In Bdelloidaceae and Seisonaceae the whole organ is paired, the germary proximal, the vitellary next the cloaca.”

“The female apparatus consists of two germaries—uncertain if quite separated or united in the middle as in Promescosforma marmoratum (Luther 1943, figg. 15-16) — and two vitellaries (branched or not?).”

“The germary is ventrolaterally joint to the syncytial tissue.”
