General Information
Term photoreceptor cell morphogenesis ID (Ontology) GO:0008594 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The process in which the structures of a photoreceptor cell are generated and organized. This process occurs while the initially relatively unspecialized cell is acquiring the specialized features of a photoreceptor cell, a sensory cell that reacts to the presence of light. An example of this is found in Drosophila melanogaster.
