In the Cucurbitaceae several highly important characters have varied, such as the sessile position of the stigmas on the ovarium, the position of the carpels, and the projection of the ovarium out of the receptacle.
What would the floriculturist care for any change in the structure of the ovarium or of the ovules?
In the case of Mirabilis the pollen grains are extraordinarily large, and the ovarium contains only a single ovule; and these circumstances led Naudin (27/15.

Traherne Moggridge) that with hybrid Cisti the ovarium is frequently deformed, the ovules being in some cases quite absent, and in other cases incapable of fertilisation.
Hooker), observed the singular fact with an orchid, the Bonatea speciosa, the development of the ovarium could be effected by mechanical irritation of the stigma.
The irreconcilability of these two implications would, I think, sufficiently dispose of the supposition, even had we not daily multitudinous proof that the surface of a mammalian ovarium is not a sperm-atheca.
Hooker informs me that within the same ovarium the upper ovules alone in some cases, and in others the lower ones alone are fertilised; and he suggests that this probably depends on the direction in which the pollen-tubes enter the ovarium.
In certain whole groups of plants the ovules stand erect, and in others they are suspended; and within the same ovarium of some few plants, one ovule holds the former and a second ovule the latter position.
When the ovariumis short and oval the interior structure does not differ from that of C.
Hooker), observed with an orchid, the Bonatea speciosa, the singular fact that the development of the ovarium could be effected by the mechanical irritation of the stigma.
In the case of Pontederia, the ovarium includes only a single ovule, and what the meaning of the difference in size between the pollen-grains from the corresponding sets of anthers may be, I will not pretend to conjecture.
As the ovarium swelled the little withered corolla was carried upwards in the form of a cap.
I could not detect any stamens, and in the place of the ovarium there was a little central column.
Certain bodies, which during their early development cannot be distinguished by any external character from true ovules, nevertheless must be classed as buds, for though formed within the ovarium they are incapable of fertilisation.
The ovarium becomes an independent organ furnished with its own excretory ducts; the male parts are individualized to form veritable testes furnished with excretory ducts, or even with a penis.
The corolla and ovarium follow the opposite position of the leaves; the former being quadripartite, the latter bi-and quaternary.
As regards the blossom the ovarium is most perfectly evolved, because it is developed out of the stalk; it is ternary and becomes elevated into a fruit with few seeds.
The ovariumis a single carpel, owing to the four others being arrested; it is usually compressed and bivalved, with few seeds; it is a legumen, frequently converted into a fleshy fruit.
The sexual parts are likewise intestini-and dermiform, not glandular in figure like the ovarium and testis of Mussels and Snails, but tubular, as in the Entozoa.
The fruit is the coalescence or blending of the three parts of the flower, or the seed, ovarium and corolla.
In the ovarian fruit the ovarium has become demi nut-like, half corolla-like or fleshy, as in the Plum.
A half of the ovarium is converted into the testis.
I have been thinking that the apparent opening at the chalaza end must have been withering or perhaps gnawing by some very minute insects, as the ovarium is open at the upper end.

In the ovarium there are six bundles of vessels: R.
You will see in my book that I state that I did not look at the ovarium of A.
St. Hilaire insists on the locularity of the ovarium varying on the same plant in some of the Rutaceae, such differences do not speak, as it seems to me, in favour of progressive development.
The longest diameter of the ovarium is about an inch.
Granville, of a foetus which appears to have been lodged in the body of the ovarium itself, and is considered by its author as a proof that conception always takes place in this organ.
Some of these vesicles are situated so near the surface of the ovarium as to be prominent on its surface.

He dissected another twenty-four hours after copulation, and remarked in one ovarium three, and in the other five follicules that were changed, the transparency being become dark and red.
On opening the abdomen I found a large cyst attached to the left ovarium by an elastic neck as thick as the little finger, and so callous as not to admit of being separated by scissars without considerable difficulty.
Perhaps your plan is to remove one half of the ovarium of a one-seeded plant and join it on to the ovary of another of a distinct var.
Do you intend to operate on an ovarium with a single ovule, and to bisect it after being fertilised?
If Hooker is correct, he found that cutting off or making a hole into the summit of the ovarium and then inserting pollen caused the fertilisation of the ovules.
The ovarium dropsy is generally slow in its progress; for a considerable time the patient though somewhat emaciated, does not lose the appearance of health, and the urine flows in the usual quantity.

The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "ovarium" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
