Originating from within the organism or system itself, rather than from external sources. The plant's autogenous ability to produce its own nutrients makes it highly resilient in poor soil conditions.
Self-generated or self-produced, often used in the context of biological or medical processes. The autogenous vaccine was developed using the patient's own cells to ensure compatibility and effectiveness.
Performed without the addition of filler material, especially in welding or metal-joining processes. Autogenous welding fuses the metal pieces together solely by melting their own edges.
