GO:0035151
Name
regulation of tube size, open tracheal system
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
regulation of tracheal tube size
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
Ensuring that an epithelial tube in an open tracheal system is of the correct length and diameter. Tracheal tubes undergo highly regulated tube-size increases during development, expanding up to 40 times their initial size by the end of larval life. Tube size appears to be controlled by regulation of apical membrane expansion and secretion, rather than by changes in cell number, size or shape.
