CIL:1703

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 2 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.

本数据集为秀丽隐杆线虫（C. elegans）咽部终球衰老数据集，旨在基于咽部终球（进食器官的组成部分）的图像推断线虫的实际年龄。该数据集采集了不同实龄阶段的秀丽隐杆线虫图像，本次展示的图像属于第2天数据集。需注意，即便个体为遗传同源个体，由于个体间存在表型异质性，其形态年龄与实龄并不完全相关。该数据集的来源为美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）下属美国国家衰老研究所（NIA）遗传学实验室。
