Josiah Johnston, Cathy Wolkow (2011) CIL:1622, 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 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.

本数据集C. elegans端部球体老化之旨在根据咽端球体（摄食器官的一部分）的图像推断线虫的年龄。C. elegans在不同时间点的图像被采集，以反映其不同的生物年龄。此图像属于第0天数据集。请注意，尽管个体在基因上完全相同，但由于个体间的可变性，形态学年龄与生物年龄并非完全一致。数据集的来源为美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）国家衰老研究所（NIA）遗传学实验室。
