General Information

Term

growth of a germarium-derived egg chamber

ID (Ontology)

GO:0007295 (Gene Ontology)

Definition

Growth of the egg chamber between the time it leaves the germarium and the onset of vitellogenesis. During this time both nurse cells and the oocyte undergo developmental changes including nuclear organization and cytoplasmic growth. An example of this is found in Drosophila melanogaster.[ ISBN:0879694238 ]
