General Information
Term eye photoreceptor cell development ID (Ontology) GO:0042462 (Gene Ontology)
Definition Development of a photoreceptor, a sensory cell in the eye that reacts to the presence of light. They usually contain a pigment that undergoes a chemical change when light is absorbed, thus stimulating a nerve.[ ISBN:0192800981 ]
