Human Gene Set: GOBP_EMBRYONIC_MORPHOGENESIS

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see GOBP_EMBRYONIC_MORPHOGENESIS

Standard name GOBP_EMBRYONIC_MORPHOGENESIS
Systematic name M18144
Brief description The process in which anatomical structures are generated and organized during the embryonic phase. The embryonic phase begins with zygote formation. The end of the embryonic phase is organism-specific. For example, it would be at birth for mammals, larval hatching for insects and seed dormancy in plants. [GOC:jid, GOC:mtg_sensu]
