branching involved in ureteric bud morphogenesis
Go to external page http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/GO_0001658
The process in which the branching structure of the ureteric bud is generated and organized. The ureteric bud is an epithelial tube that grows out from the metanephric duct. The bud elongates and branches to give rise to the ureter and kidney collecting tubules. [ http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16916378 GOC:dph ]
