GO:0016049 cell growth The process in which a cell irreversibly increases in size over time by accretion and biosynthetic production of matter similar to that already present. 233
GO:0036180 filamentous growth of a population of unicellular organisms in response to biotic stimulus The process in which a group of unicellular organisms grow in a threadlike, filamentous shape in response to a biotic (living) stimulus. 207
GO:0036170 filamentous growth of a population of unicellular organisms in response to starvation The process in which a group of unicellular organisms grow in a threadlike, filamentous shape in response to deprivation of nourishment. 128
GO:0044182 filamentous growth of a population of unicellular organisms The process in which a group of unicellular organisms grow in a threadlike, filamentous shape. 119
GO:0036178 filamentous growth of a population of unicellular organisms in response to neutral pH The process in which a group of unicellular organisms grow in a threadlike, filamentous shape in response to a neutral pH (pH close to 7) stimulus. 76
GO:0036168 filamentous growth of a population of unicellular organisms in response to heat The process in which a group of unicellular organisms grow in a threadlike, filamentous shape in response to an increase in temperature. 73
GO:0031101 fin regeneration The regrowth of fin tissue following its loss or destruction. 71
GO:0030448 hyphal growth Growth of fungi as threadlike, tubular structures that may contain multiple nuclei and may or may not be divided internally by septa, or cross-walls. 69
GO:0048589 developmental growth The increase in size or mass of an entire organism, a part of an organism or a cell, where the increase in size or mass has the specific outcome of the progression of the organism over time from one condition to another. 57
GO:0001403 invasive growth in response to glucose limitation A growth pattern exhibited by budding haploid cells under certain growth conditions, in which cells retain the typical axial budding pattern of haploids, but become elongated and fail to separate after division; during growth on a solid substrate, this results in penetration of cells into the agar medium. An example of this process is found in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. 49
GO:0035265 organ growth The increase in size or mass of an organ. Organs are commonly observed as visibly distinct structures, but may also exist as loosely associated clusters of cells that function together as to perform a specific function. 48
GO:0007446 imaginal disc growth The increase in mass of imaginal discs by cell proliferation prior to metamorphosis. Imaginal discs are epithelial infoldings in the larvae of holometabolous insects that develop into adult structures (legs, antennae, wings, etc.) during metamorphosis from larval to adult form. 37
GO:0007117 budding cell bud growth The process in which the bud portion of a cell that reproduces by budding irreversibly increases in size over time by accretion and biosynthetic production of matter similar to that already present. 35
GO:0051124 synaptic growth at neuromuscular junction The growth of a synapse at a neuromuscular junction, the site of apposition of a motor end plate and the subneural cleft of the skeletal muscle fiber that it innervates. 35
GO:0030447 filamentous growth The process in which a multicellular organism, a unicellular organism or a group of unicellular organisms grow in a threadlike, filamentous shape. 35
GO:0001402 signal transduction involved in filamentous growth Relaying of environmental signals promoting filamentous growth. 31
GO:0007119 budding cell isotropic bud growth Unlocalized bud growth such that the entire surface of the bud expands evenly, in a cell that reproduces by budding. 30
GO:0035264 multicellular organism growth The increase in size or mass of an entire multicellular organism, as opposed to cell growth. 25
GO:0043403 skeletal muscle tissue regeneration The regrowth of skeletal muscle tissue to repair injured or damaged muscle fibers in the postnatal stage. 21
GO:0044119 growth of symbiont in host cell The increase in size or mass of symbiont, occurring in its host's cell. The host is defined as the larger of the organisms involved in a symbiotic interaction. 20
GO:0010450 inflorescence meristem growth The increase in size or mass of an inflorescence meristem, a population of undifferentiated cells in a plant shoot which produces small leaves and then floral meristems, which will give rise to flowers. 12
GO:0007118 budding cell apical bud growth Growth at the tip of a bud, in a cell that reproduces by budding. 12
GO:0060028 convergent extension involved in axis elongation The morphogenetic process in which an epithelium narrows along one axis and lengthens in a perpendicular axis contributing to the lengthening of the axis of an organism. 11
GO:0060560 developmental growth involved in morphogenesis The increase in size or mass of an anatomical structure that contributes to the structure attaining its shape. 10
GO:0080117 secondary growth Lateral growth of a plant axis (shoot axis or root) that is an increase in thickness resulting from formation of secondary vascular tissues by the vascular cambium. 8
GO:0035266 meristem growth The increase in size or mass of a meristem, a region of tissue in a plant that is composed of one or more undifferentiated cells capable of undergoing mitosis and differentiation. 8
GO:0036171 filamentous growth of a population of unicellular organisms in response to chemical stimulus The process in which a group of unicellular organisms grow in a threadlike, filamentous shape in response to a chemical stimulus. 7
GO:0001833 inner cell mass cell proliferation The proliferation of cells in the inner cell mass. 4
GO:0010449 root meristem growth The increase in size or mass of a root meristem, a population of undifferentiated cells in a plant root which maintains a continuous balance between the production of stem cells and the incorporation of their derivatives into the growth of the root. 3
GO:0042246 tissue regeneration The regrowth of lost or destroyed tissues. 2
GO:0003401 axis elongation The developmental growth that results in the elongation of a line that defines polarity or symmetry in an anatomical structure. 1
GO:0010451 floral meristem growth The increase in size or mass of a floral meristem, a population of undifferentiated cells in a plant that gives rise to a flower. 1
GO:0048526 imaginal disc-derived wing expansion The process of expanding or inflating the folded imaginal disc-derived pupal wing, and the adhering of the dorsal and ventral surfaces, to form the mature adult wing. 1
