The process or mechanism of gamete formation and reproduction; gametogenesis.
From 'gamete' (Greek 'gametes') + 'geny' (from Greek 'gonia,' meaning 'generation' or 'origin'), an alternative term for the production of reproductive cells.
'Gametogeny' is largely superseded by 'gametogenesis' in modern usage, but both terms reflect how scientific language consolidates—competing terms eventually fall out of favor.
