What's the difference between heterogenous and heterogonous?
Heterogenous
Definition:
(a.) Of or pertaining to heterogenesis; heterogenetic.
Example Sentences:

(12) The antibody-hapten profiles revealed that the DNCB-fed animalss contained predominatly IgG2 in their serum by the time of their initial bleedings, whereas sensitized animals still contained a considerable proportion of more acidic antibodies having marked charge heterogeneity.
(13) We detected no evidence for heterogeneity in this sample, but when we combined results with previously published lod scores, heterogeneity was statistically significant.
(14) The operational meaning of all the resulting theorems is that when any of them appear to be refuted experimentally, the presence of more than one parallel transport pathway (that is, of membrane heterogeneity transverse to the direction of transport) can be inferred and analyzed.
(15) Possible interpretations of this manifestation of biological heterogeneity are discussed.
(16) The heterogeneity of the muscarinic receptors was examined both in vivo and in radioligand binding experiments.
(17) This work shows that during 3MeDAB hepatocarcinogenesis, AFP gene activation occurs in heterogenous cell populations and according to different cellular patterns.

Heterogonous
Definition:
(a.) Characterized by heterogony.
Example Sentences:
(1) Development of exact doses (less than 100) of Strongyloides venezuelensis third-stage larvae in adult Wistar rats was insignificant (mean proportion of 0.076 of the dose at day 8, n = 16) compared with a homogonic strain of S. ratti (0.538, n = 6; 0.726, n = 6) and heterogonic S. ratti (0.681, n = 6).
(2) The detailed distribution of the label and of unlabelled worms of the heterogonic strain in families was, however, different for the two methods, indicating that subtle variations in pathway can be brought about by the use of injection.
(3) The rate of loss of adults of the heterogonic strain was significantly greater than that for the homogonic.
(4) The direction of free-living development (homogonic vs. heterogonic) in Strongyloides stercoralis and Strongyloides planiceps was examined by successive transplantation of the uterine eggs of free-living females into a test tube culture system containing fresh feces.
