CIL:1676

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 0 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.

“秀丽隐杆线虫咽终端球衰老数据集（C. elegans terminal bulb aging）”的构建目标为：基于线虫咽部终端球（摄食器官的组成部分）的图像，推断线虫的年龄。该数据集采集了不同日龄的秀丽隐杆线虫图像。本图像属于第0日数据集的一部分。需注意：即便个体的遗传背景完全一致，由于个体间存在固有差异，其形态学年龄与实际日龄并不完全相关。该数据集的来源为美国国立衰老研究所（NIA）/美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）遗传学实验室。
