Talk:Martinus Beijerinck

message: Does anybody know a reason why this man never got a nobel prize? He was the first to discover and identify viruses, after all...Sikkema 13:50, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Beijerinck discovered viruses in 1898 and the Nobel Prize was established in 1901, so it would have been possible... But virology remained in its infancy until well after World War 2 and Beijerinck died in 1931. I doubt if anyone recognized the full importance of his discovery during his lifetime.

message: Does anyone know how 'Beijerinck' is commonly pronounced.  I am not looking for the correct Dutch pronunciation per se, but how it is said in English among those who have a reason to refer to the man who is credited with discovering viruses.
Thanks
:Depends what accent you're used to. For UK pronunciation, combine "buyer" and "ink".
::I'm Dutch. The above suggestion of buyer-ink comes fairly close to the Dutch pronunciation, but the first vowel in the name ('eij') does not have an equivalent in English (and I've never heard it pronounced correctly by a foreigner ;-), so I guess it's irrelevant to English wikipedia.

message: A primary source is used to establish his priority on the discovery of nitrogen fixation, but a secondary source, the 1905 New International Encyclopædia, gives credit to Hermann Hellriegel and cites an 1888 primary source, which predates the source given for Beijerinck.

replies: text: Apparently Beijerinck was able to describe the microbiology, while Hellriegel uncovered the fact that water from fertile soil yielded the factor leading to nitrogen fixation. Rgdboer (talk) 02:11, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  copyvio - not 

message: According to Wikipedia on Dmitri Ivanovsky: "In 1898, the Dutch microbiologist Martinus Beijerinck independently replicated Ivanovsky's experiments and became convinced that the filtered solution contained a new form of infectious agent, which he named virus. Beijerinck subsequently acknowledged Ivanovsky's priority of discovery."
If this is true, Ivanovsky should be the discoverer of virus, but both men are considered to be co-developers of virology.
