n.感應(yīng)遺傳
Telegony is the supposed influence of a female's first mate on the offspring of her later matings with other males. 先父遺傳是與母畜第一次交配的公畜,對(duì)以后該母畜與其它公畜交配所生的后代會(huì)有影響。
Thus, the myth of telegony is fundamentally incompatible with our knowledge of genetics and the reproductive process. 因此,,先父遺傳的神話根本不能與當(dāng)代遺傳學(xué)說(shuō)的知識(shí)和生殖過(guò)程相容。
Weismann believed his notion of the germ plasm could explain telegony, should it be shown to exist, but he doubted its reality. Weismann相信他的關(guān)于遺傳物質(zhì)的概念可以解釋telegony,它可能是真的,但Weismann懷疑其真實(shí)性。
Nevertheless, telegony influenced late nineteenth-century racialist discourse: a woman who had once had a child with a non-Aryan man, it was argued, could never have a "pure" Aryan child again. 然而,先父遺傳的理論在19實(shí)際晚期曾被種族主義者大肆宣說(shuō):如果一個(gè)女人有了一個(gè)非雅利安人種的孩子,她就永遠(yuǎn)不可能在生出“純種”的雅利安孩子來(lái)了。
The telegony idea gained much popularity among those who supported segregation between blacks and whites, and was said to be particularly popular among the circles connected to the Ku-Klux-Klan. 先父遺傳這個(gè)說(shuō)法最開始是在種族歧視人群(就是認(rèn)為黑人白人不一樣的那些家伙)中開始興起的,其中最為活躍的就是3k黨人(某個(gè)無(wú)惡不作的美國(guó)黑社會(huì))
Telegony is a theory in heredity, now discredited but widely believed until the lat
