The regionalization process that specifies organ primordium boundaries resulting in a restriction of organogenesis to a limited spatial domain and keeping the organ separate from surrounding tissues. Any developmental process that results in the creation of defined areas or spaces within an organism to which cells respond and eventually are instructed to differentiate. The regionalization process that regulates the coordinated growth and establishes the non-random spatial arrangement of the spinal cord. The pattern specification process by which the otic epithelium is subdivided in space to define an area or volume in which cells will differentiate to give rise to the semicircular canals. The pattern specification process by which an axis or axes of the neural plate is subdivided in space to define an area or volume in which specific patterns of cell differentiation will take place or in which cells interpret a specific environment. The regionalization process that regulates the coordinated growth that establishes the non-random spatial arrangement of the neural tube. The regionalization process that coordinates the recruitment and organization of other non-R8 photoreceptors by the R8 photoreceptor. The regionalization process that divides the spatial regions of an embryo into serially repeated regions. The regionalization process of establishing the non-random spatial arrangement of stomatal complex on the surface of a leaf. The stomatal complex is the stomatal guard cells and their associated epidermal cells. The regionalization process that results in defined areas around a point in which specific types of cell differentiation will occur. The regionalization process by which differences in cell differentiation along the adaxial/abaxial are generated. Adaxial refers to being situated toward an axis of an anatomical structure. Abaxial refers to being situated away from an axis of an anatomical structure. The pattern specification process by which an axis or axes is subdivided in space to define an area or volume in which specific patterns of cell differentiation will take place or in which cells interpret a specific environment. The regionalization process by which specific areas of cell differentiation are determined along a proximal/distal axis. The proximal/distal axis is defined by a line that runs from main body (proximal end) of an organism outward (distal end). The regionalization process by which the areas along the dorsal/ventral axis are established that will lead to differences in cell differentiation. The dorsal/ventral axis is defined by a line that runs orthogonal to both the anterior/posterior and left/right axes. The dorsal end is defined by the upper or back side of an organism. The ventral end is defined by the lower or front side of an organism. The regionalization process by which specific areas of cell differentiation are determined along the anterior-posterior axis. The anterior-posterior axis is defined by a line that runs from the head or mouth of an organism to the tail or opposite end of the organism. The regionalization process that gives rise to the structural pattern of a chorion-containing eggshell such as those found in insects. A biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of an integrated living unit: an anatomical structure (which may be a subcellular structure, cell, tissue, or organ), or organism over time from an initial condition to a later condition. The regionalization process that results in the creation of areas within the cerebral cortex that will direct the behavior of cell migration and differentiation as the cortex develops. The regionalization process that divides an organism or part of an organism into a series of semi-repetitive parts, or segments, often arranged along a longitudinal axis. The pattern specification process by which the left/right axis is subdivided in space to define an area or volume in which specific patterns of cell differentiation will take place or in which cells interpret a specific environment. The regionalization process by which the identity of an organ primordium is specified. Identity is considered to be the aggregate of characteristics by which a structure is recognized. The regionalization process by which the identity of the renal capsule is specified. Identity is considered to be the aggregate of characteristics by which a structure is recognized. The regionalization process of establishing the non-random spatial arrangement of trichomes on the surface and margin of a leaf. Process involves signaling between adjacent epidermal cells that results in differentiation of some epidermal cells into trichomes. The regionalization process that gives rise to the patterns of cell differentiation in the cuticle. The regionalization process by which information that determines the correct position at which organ primordia are formed is generated and perceived resulting in correct positioning of the new organ. The regionalization process that gives rise to the midbrain-hindbrain boundary. The midbrain-hindbrain domain of the embryonic brain is comprised of the mesencephalic vesicle and the first rhombencephalic vesicle at early somitogenesis stages. An organizing center at the boundary patterns the midbrain and hindbrain primordia of the neural plate. The pattern specification process by which the epidermis of the limb is subdivided in space to define a volume in which specific patterns of basal cell, spinous cell and granular cells will differentiate giving rise to the layers of the limb epidermis. The regionalization process that subdivides the wing imaginal disc into the wing and notum (body wall) subfields, thus determining whether cells ultimately differentiate wing or notum-specific structures. The regionalization process that gives rise to the patterning of the conducting tissues. An example of this process is found in Arabidopsis thaliana. Subdivision of the embryo along the anterior/posterior axis into anterior, posterior and terminal regions. The biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of a multicellular organism over time from an initial condition (e.g. a zygote or a young adult) to a later condition (e.g. a multicellular animal or an aged adult). The regionalization process that modulates the quantity of a particular type of organ. The regionalization process that creates areas within the forebrain that will direct the behavior of cell migration in differentiation as the telencephalon develops. The regionalization process by which the area where the ventral furrow will begin invagination is specified. The regionalization process resulting in the creation of areas within the forebrain that will direct the behavior of cell migration in differentiation as the forebrain develops. The process by which a specific region of the gut is delineated into the area in which the pancreas will develop. The regionalization process by which the determination of the identity of part of an organism or organ where those parts are of the type that occur in the ventral region. Identity is considered to be the aggregate of characteristics by which a structure is recognized. The regionalization process by which the area of a imaginal disc-derived wing that will form a wing vein is specified. The regionalization process by which the identity of an ovule is specified. Identity is considered to be the aggregate of characteristics by which a structure is recognized. The regionalization process that results in defined areas of the imaginal disc that will undergo specific cell differentaiton. Imaginal discs are epithelial infoldings in the larvae of holometabolous insects that develop into adult appendages (legs, antennae, wings, etc.) during metamorphosis from larval to adult form.
