The process that results in the patterns of cell differentiation that will arise in an embryo.

The function of absorbing and responding to incidental electromagnetic radiation, particularly visible light. The response may involve a change in conformation.

The function of absorbing and responding to electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength of approximately 400-470nm. The response may involve a change in conformation.

red or far-red light photoreceptor activity

The function of absorbing and responding to electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength of approximately 660-730nm. The response may involve a change in conformation.

The process, occurring after embryonic development, by which anatomical structures are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form.

Morphogenesis of an organ. An organ is defined as a tissue or set of tissues that work together to perform a specific function or functions. Morphogenesis pertains to processes by which anatomical structures are generated and organized. 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.

The process whose specific outcome is the progression of a tissue over time, from its formation to the mature structure.

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the formation of substances from simpler components.

The process by which a cell irreversibly increases in size in one [spatial] dimension or along one axis.

defense response to pathogen, incompatible interaction

response to pathogen (incompatible interaction)

A response of an organism to a pathogenic agent that prevents the occurrence or spread of disease.

The physiological and developmental changes that occur in a spore following release from dormancy up to the earliest signs of growth (e.g. emergence from a spore wall).

The chemical reactions involving coumarins, compounds derived from the phenylacrylic skeleton of cinnamic acids.
