Carl Wilhelm von Naegeli (March 26 or 27, 1817, May 10, 1891) was a Swiss botanist. He studied cell division and pollination. Naegeli is best known for his unproductive and discouraging correspondence with Gregor Mendel concerning the latter's celebrated work on Pisum sativum, the garden pea. He was an advocate of orthogenesis and an opponent of Darwinism. He developed an inner perfecting principle which he believed directed evolution. He wrote that many evolutionary developments were nonadaptive and variation was internally programmed. He died in 1891 at the age of 74. undated. | |
