Origin and Evolution of agamogenetic

First Known Use: 1892 year
Language of Origin: Greek
Story behind the word: The word 'agamogenetic' originated from the combination of the Greek roots 'a-' meaning 'without' and 'gamete' meaning 'a sexual reproductive cell'.
Evolution of the word: Originally used in the field of biology to describe reproduction without the fusion of gametes, the term 'agamogenetic' has since evolved to also be used in a more general sense to refer to any form of reproduction that does not involve the union of gametes.
