Xenia: Or The Immediate Effect Of Pollen In Maize (1900) is a scientific book written by Herbert John Webber. The book explores the immediate effects of pollen in maize, specifically looking at the phenomenon of xenia, which refers to the influence of pollen on the development of the embryo and endosperm of a seed. The book provides a detailed analysis of the experiments conducted by the author and his colleagues, which involved cross-pollinating maize plants with different varieties and observing the resulting effects on the offspring. The book also includes a discussion of the implications of these findings for the breeding of maize and other crops. Overall, Xenia is an important work in the field of plant genetics and provides valuable insights into the mechanisms of plant reproduction.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
