Unpublished paper, 'Researches in embryology; a note, supplementary to papers published in the Philosophical Transactions for 1838, 1839 and 1840, showing the confirmation of the principal facts therein recorded, and pointing out a correspondence between certain structures connected with the mammiferous ovum and other ova' by Martin Barry
Reference number: AP/34/2
Date: 1853
Description
Referring to his account of the process of fecundation of the mammalian ovum and the immediately succeeding phenomena, published in various papers in the Philosophical Transactions (see PT/24/4 and PT/25/7), Barry calls attention to the confirmation which his views have received from corresponding observations made by subsequent inquirers on the ova of other animals. He more particularly adverts to a recently published memoir by Keber, in which that physiologist describes the penetration of the spermatozoa into the interior of the ovum, in Unio and Anodonta, through an aperture formed by the splitting open of its coats, analogous to the micropyle in plants.
Subject: Biology / Embryology
Received 26 May 1853.
