Plural form referring to multiple theories, processes, or instances of cell origin and development.
From 'cytogeny' (the origin of cells) with the plural suffix '-ies'. Used when discussing different ways or theories about how cells develop.
The plural form 'cytogenies' is rarely used in modern biology because 'cytogeny' is already somewhat old-fashioned—it's been largely replaced by the more common term 'cytogenesis.' But it shows how scientific language evolves.
