CFU-GM (Colony Forming Unit–Granulocyte–Macrophage), also known as granulocyte–macrophage progenitor (GMP), is a colony forming unit. It is derived from CFU-GEMM. It is the precursor for monoblasts and myeloblasts. Production is stimulated by granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF).

==Granulocytes== There is some controversy over which granulocytes derive from CFU-GM. There is little disagreement that neutrophils come from CFU-GM. Some sources state that basophils also derive from CFU-GM, but that eosinophils come from "CFU-Eos". Other sources state that basophils do not derive from CFU-GM, but from a distinct CFU, titled "CFU-Baso".
