There is no certain example of such a fact among the bacterial diseases, and this is the reason why the idea of heredity among them has lost so much ground. From their power of penetrating cells the protozoa fre- quently infect parasitically the ovum, thus producing hereditary infections. The first thoroughly demonstrated example of hereditary infection was that of the pebri?ie of the silk-worm,.
