Unpublished paper, 'On animal and vegetable fibre as originally composed of twin spiral filaments, in which every other structure has its origin. A note, showing the confirmation by Agardh, in 1852, of observations recorded in the Philosophical Transactions for 1842' by Martin Barry
Reference number: AP/34/1
Date: 1853
Description
After referring to the drawings to his paper on fibre, published in the Philosophical Transactions for 1842 (see PT/26/5), and the opinions entertained by physiologists regarding the views advanced in the paper regarding the original composition of organic fibre, Barry states that these views have been fully confirmed, and in proof of this refers to a paper entitled 'De cellula vegetabili fibrillis tenuissimis contexta' (Lundae, 1852), by [Jacob Georg] Agardh.
Subject: Biology
Received 24 February 1853.
