General Information
Term axonogenesis ID (Ontology) GO:0007409 (Gene Ontology)
Definition De novo generation of a long process of a neuron, including the terminal branched region. Refers to the morphogenesis or creation of shape or form of the developing axon, which carries efferent (outgoing) action potentials from the cell body towards target cells.[ ISBN:0198506732 ]
Also Known As "axon morphogenesis" ; "neuron long process generation"
