General Information
Term hemocyte differentiation ID (Ontology) GO:0042386 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires the characteristics of a mature hemocyte. Hemocytes are blood cells associated with a hemocoel (the cavity containing most of the major organs of the arthropod body) which are involved in defense and clotting of hemolymph, but not involved in transport of oxygen.[ PubMed:9550723 ]
Also Known As "arthropod blood cell differentiation"
