Josiah Johnston, Cathy Wolkow (2011) CIL:1790, Caenorhabditis elegans. CIL. Dataset

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C. elegans终端膨大部衰老的目的是基于咽端膨大部（摄食器官的一部分）的图像，推断线虫的年龄。C. elegans在不同生理年龄阶段的图像被采集。该图像属于第2天的数据集。请注意，尽管个体在遗传上具有同一性，但由于个体之间的可变性，形态学年龄与生理学年龄并非完全对应。该数据集的来源为美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）国家老年研究所（NIA）遗传学实验室。
