Abstract

Genetics is the science that deals with transmission of biological properties from parents to offspring. It crisscross with life science and linked with modern embryology. In Ayurveda certain factors are described in view of genesis of embryo or foetus. Acharyas had described Ashtaprakriti, Shodashvikara and Atma in the formation of Garbh. While describing detailed embryology Acharyas have described about Matrijadi Garbhotpattikar Shadbhav. These are factors described for the development of foetus. As Ayurveda is based on eternal and concealed facts. Modern embryology is much advance in this field. Development of embryois is well defined. Whatever the features and development of different parts of foetus described with assistance of the 6 factors may be helpfull to enhance the goal of Ayurveda embryology, that is Suprajanan.
