Plural of germen; multiple germs, seeds, or embryonic structures.
From Latin 'germen' (seed, sprout) + English plural '-s'. Standard pluralization of the scientific term germen used in formal biological texts.
Germens is a rare plural form you'll only find in old scientific Latin or specialized biological literature—a ghost word that shows how English borrowed Latin scientific terms but usually just uses 'germs' instead, making older texts feel delightfully alien.
