The stage-specific break down of the larval salivary glands during Drosophila metamorphosis, to allow replacement of larval structures by tissues and structures that form the adult fly. Any process that induces the formation of the salivary gland field by means of the secretion of a signal by a mesenchymal cell and its reception and interpretation by an epithelial cell resulting in it adopting the identity of a salivary gland bud cell. The process by which anatomical structures are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The multiplication or reproduction of epithelial cells of the submandibular salivary gland, resulting in the expansion of a cell population and the shaping of the gland. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of a gland over time, from its formation to the mature structure. A gland is an organ specialised for secretion. Progression of the exocrine system over time, from its formation to a mature structure. The exocrine system is a system of hormones and glands, where the glands secrete straight to a target site via ducts or tubes. The human exocrine system includes the salivary glands, sweat glands and many glands of the digestive system. The developmental process pertaining to the initial formation of a submandibular salivary gland. This process begins with a thickening of the epithelium next to the tongue and ends when a bud linked to the oral surface is formed. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the salivary gland over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Salivary glands include any of the saliva-secreting exocrine glands of the oral cavity. The process by which the anatomical structures of a gland are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The process by which the solid core of salivary epithelium gives rise to the hollow tube of the gland. The process by which the anatomical structures of the adult salivary gland are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The process, occurring in the larva, by which the anatomical structures of the salivary gland are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The process by which the anatomical structures of the salivary gland are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The process by which the branching structure of the salivary gland is generated and organized.
