<p>Leukopoiesis is the process of formation of [[Leukocytes|leukocytes]] (white blood cells) from stem cells in haematopoietic organs. Leukocytes develop from either multipotential myeloid stem cells ([[Haematopoiesis#Colony Forming Units|CFU-GEMM]]) or multipotential lymphoid stem cells ([[Haematopoiesis#Colony Forming Units|CFU-L]]). </p>
