[Having shewn that the principles of the nitrous acid are capable of disunion and recombination, it remains for me to demonstrate that we may produce the same effect with materials which are not all derived from the nitrous acid.

recombinationrecombination (fr.); Rekombination (ger.)
-
The rearrangement of genetic material, or of the corresponding heritable characteristics, by natural or artificial means; esp. the generation of a new combination of existing genes by the exchange of segments between chromosomes, as (in sexual reproduction) by crossing over during meiosis between pairs of homologous chromosomes derived from each parent. Also: the biochemical processes involved in this. (OED 2009)

[All chemical operations are reducible to analysis or synthesis, that is, to discombination, as it may be called, and recombination of substances.

In conclusion, since the resolution of a compound character may be spoken of as an analysis leading to a distribution of the components among the gametes, the term synthesis should surely be reserved for a recombination that has taken place in such a way that the gametes become bearers of the compound character again, as they were in the pure compound form.

In some cases of this sort, as in coat-color of mammals, the hybrid character probably results from a recombination of the characters seen in one or both parentswith certain other characters latent (that is, recessive) in one parent or the other.
