Book Description
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Washington Academy of Sciences, Vol. 6: 1904 The present studies were begun in the fall of 1897 with the hope of adding somewhat to our knowledge of this subject. Incidentally, it seemed desirable to determine whether any ves tiges of the bodies called blepharoplasts by Webber (18973) still persist in the conifers. As a result Of the past embryological studies, a vast number of facts pertaining to the life-history of the gametophytes in the higher platus has accumulated. While many of the conclusions reached are the outcome of serious direct investigations, others are based on the insufficient evi dence found in a rather superficial study of a large number of plants. What we need to-day is not more facts regarding un related plants, so much as a careful working out of the details of development in representative genera.
