Human Gene Set: GOBP_EMBRYONIC_ORGAN_DEVELOPMENT

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

Standard name GOBP_EMBRYONIC_ORGAN_DEVELOPMENT
Systematic name M16163
Brief description Development, taking place during the embryonic phase, of a tissue or tissues that work together to perform a specific function or functions. Development pertains to the process whose specific outcome is the progression of a structure over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Organs are commonly observed as visibly distinct structures, but may also exist as loosely associated clusters of cells that work together to perform a specific function or functions. [GOC:jid]
