Ernst Hallier (* November 15, 1831 in Hamburg, † December 19, 1904 in Dachau ) was a German botanist and philosopher. Its official botanical author abbreviation is " Hallier ".

Life and work

Hallier made ​​1848-1851 apprenticeship as a gardener in the botanical garden in Jena and Erfurt. In 1852 he worked as a gardener in Charlottenburg and Berlin. He studied botany in 1854 at the University of Berlin, 1855 in Jena and 1857 in Göttingen. In 1858 he received his doctorate in Jena for Dr. med.

From 1858 he worked as a teacher to the pharmacy school at the University of Jena ( with Hermann Ludwig), his habilitation in 1860 as a lecturer and assistant of Botany ( Jacob with his uncle Matthias Schleiden ) and received in 1865 as an associate professor.

In 1884 he resigned his professorship and retired in 1884 to Dachau back.

Hallier preferably worked on mushrooms, especially parasitic fungi. He opposed the view that all fungal formations occurring in fermentation, putrefaction and decay processes and in diseases on animal and plant bodies were specifically independent organisms, and claimed that the lower organisms take different forms depending on the substrate on which the germs reach.

Halliers merits are that he to the constant presence of certain parasitic fungi, especially since bacteria has made first drew attention in various pathological processes of the animal body and stimulated the studies and discussion on those areas.

Ernst Hallier was a follower of the philosophy of Jakob Friedrich Fries.
