Scientific American Supplement, No. 531, March 6, 1886 The egg, in such species, develops into an asexual individual. The Gutenberg Webster's Unabridged Dictionary Section S Sexual and asexual variability therefore seem to be one and the same process in this instance. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation But as we pass from the lower to the higher, we pass from the less individual to the more individual; from asexual to sexual. Sex and Common-Sense As far as the preservation of a species is concerned, and the reproduction of the individual, the asexual methods, budding, for example, would have done well enough. The Glands Regulating Personality Down this canal pass one or more antherozoids, which become absorbed into the oosphere, and this then secretes a wall, and from it grows the second or asexual generation. Scientific American Supplement, No. 531, March 6, 1886 These simplest forms multiply or reproduce by fission, but such asexual reproduction is almost entirely confined to the unicellular forms of life. Sociology and Modern Social Problems It is very difficult for a botanist to give a survey of what practice has attained by the asexual multiplication of extremes. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation I have used the word “beget,” of what, I am told, is asexual generation, whereas the word should be confined to sexual generation only. Life and Habit The truly emancipated woman—it was Godwin's conviction—is almost always asexual; to him, therefore, utterly repugnant. Born in Exile The characteristics, then, of the mosses are, that the sexual generation is leafy, the one or two asexual generations are thalloid, and that the spore-bearing generation is in parasitic connection with the sexual generation. Scientific American Supplement, No. 531, March 6, 1886 It resembles in this respect those plants which are now widely spread, though they increase solely by asexual generation. The Different Forms of Flowers on Plants of the Same Species By far the greatest majority of improved asexual varieties, however, are not the result of pure intra-specific selection. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation REPRODUCTION, sexual and asexual, contrasted. -unity of forms of. -antagonism of, to growth. The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication — Volume 2 As in the asexual reproduction of algae quantitative alteration in the amount of moisture, light, temperature, etc. determines whether this or that form of shoot is produced. Darwin and Modern Science But the asexual generation derived from the oospore only for a short while remains in connection with the prothallium, which, of course, answers to the leafy portion of the moss. Scientific American Supplement, No. 531, March 6, 1886 Indeed, when a plant has monoecious or dioecious flowers, the distinction between the asexual and the sexual generation has practically been lost, and the spore-bearing generation has become identified with the sexual generation. Scientific American Supplement, No. 531, March 6, 1886 The greater advantages of the asexual multiplication of extremes are of course restricted to perennial and woody plants. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation Reproduction may be divided into two main classes, namely, sexual and asexual. The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication — Volume 2 It is highly probable that it occurs more readily by sexual than by asexual propagation. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation What is generally known as the fern is this asexual generation, a great contrast to the small leafless moss fruit or sporogonium as it is called, to which it is morphologically equivalent. Scientific American Supplement, No. 531, March 6, 1886 If the abnormality happens to show itself in a species, which normally propagates itself in an asexual way, the type may become a vegetative variety, and be multiplied by bulbs, buds or cuttings, etc. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation Multiplication by seed however, has one great advantage over the asexual method; it may be repeated. Species and Varieties, Their Origin by Mutation The union of the two sexual elements seems at first sight to make a broad distinction between sexual and asexual generation. The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication — Volume 2 Sexual and asexual reproduction are thus seen not to differ essentially; and we have already shown that asexual reproduction, the power of regrowth and development are all parts of one and the same great law. The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication — Volume 2 This description of the analogies of the pollen and embryo-sac of dicotyledons assumes that the general vegetative structure of this class of plants is equivalent to the asexual generation of the higher cryptogams. Scientific American Supplement, No. 531, March 6, 1886 A difficulty may be here noticed; we have seen that there is an important difference in the frequency, though not in the nature, of the variations in plants propagated by sexual and asexual generation.
