Mouse Gene Set: GOBP_DEVELOPMENT_OF_SECONDARY_SEXUAL_CHARACTERISTICS

For the Human gene set with the same name, see GOBP_DEVELOPMENT_OF_SECONDARY_SEXUAL_CHARACTERISTICS

Standard name GOBP_DEVELOPMENT_OF_SECONDARY_SEXUAL_CHARACTERISTICS
Systematic name MM7843
Brief description The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the secondary sexual characteristics over time, from their formation to the mature structures. In humans, these include growth of axillary, chest, and pubic hair, voice changes, testicular/penile enlargement, breast development and menstrual periods. Development occurs in response to sex hormone secretion. [GOC:ai]
