Josiah Johnston, Cathy Wolkow (2010) CIL:2749, 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 8 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终末神经节老化旨在根据咽部终末神经节（摄食器官的一部分）的图像，推断线虫的年龄。线虫图像在不同生理年龄下采集。此图像属于第8天数据集。需要注意的是，尽管个体基因型相同，但由于个体间的可变性，形态学和生理学年龄并不完全相关。数据集来源为遗传学实验室/国家老化研究所/美国国立卫生研究院。
