A hypothetical mechanism of heredity proposed by Charles Darwin, in which it was suggested that all parts of an organism produce tiny particles called 'gemmules' that migrate to the reproductive organs and are passed on to offspring.
In the 19th century, pangenesis was one of the theories considered to explain how traits are inherited from parents to offspring.
