Term Name:	negative regulation of terminal cell fate specification, open tracheal system
Synonyms:	down regulation of terminal cell fate specification, down-regulation of terminal cell fate specification, downregulation of terminal cell fate specification, inhibition of terminal cell fate specification, negative regulation of terminal cell fate specification
Definition:	Any process that restricts, stops or prevents a cell from adopting a terminal cell fate in an open tracheal system. Once the terminal and fusion fates have been correctly induced, inhibitory feedback loops prevent the remaining branch cells from assuming similar fates.
