CIL:1989

The purpose of the dataset C. elegans terminal bulb aging is to deduce the age of the nemathode based on images of the pharynx terminal bulb (part of the eating apparatus). Images of C. elegans were taken at different chronological ages. This image is part of the day 4 data set. Note that the morphological and chronological ages are not fully correlated due to the variability among individuals even though the individuals are genetically identical. The source for the dataset is Laboratory of Genetics/NIA/NIH.

本数据集「秀丽隐杆线虫（C. elegans）咽末端球衰老」的构建目标为：基于秀丽隐杆线虫咽末端球（属于其摄食器官的一部分）的显微图像，推断该线虫的日龄。该数据集采集了不同日龄阶段下的秀丽隐杆线虫图像，本次展示的图像属于第4天数据集的一部分。需注意：即便个体为遗传同源的同基因系，个体间仍存在表型差异，因此形态年龄与实足年龄并非完全相关。本数据集的来源为遗传学实验室/美国国家衰老研究所（NIA）/美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）。
