Josiah Johnston, Cathy Wolkow (2011) CIL:2581, 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 10 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.

该数据集C. elegans终端球状体衰老之旨在依据咽部终端球状体（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。本图像属于第10天的数据集。需要注意的是，由于个体间的变异，即使这些个体在遗传上完全相同，形态学年龄与生理学年龄之间并不完全相关。该数据集的来源为遗传学实验室/国家衰老研究所/美国国立卫生研究院。
