General Information
Term limb development ID (Ontology) GO:0060173 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The process whose specific outcome is the progression of a limb over time, from its formation to the mature structure. A limb is an appendage of an animal used for locomotion or grasping. Examples include legs, arms or some types of fin.[ PubMed:11487378 ]
Also Known As "paired limb/fin development"
