General Information
Term	positive regulation of developmental process	ID (Ontology)	GO:0051094 (Gene Ontology)
Definition	Any process that activates or increases the rate or extent of development, the biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of an organism over time from an initial condition (e.g. a zygote, or a young adult) to a later condition (e.g. a multicellular animal or an aged adult).
Also Known As	"up regulation of developmental process" ; "up-regulation of developmental process" ; "upregulation of developmental process"
