Josiah Johnston, Cathy Wolkow (2011) CIL:2195, 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 4 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终端球部老化之旨在通过分析咽部终端球（摄食器官的一部分）的图像，推断线虫的年龄。线虫的图像在不同生理年龄下进行采集。此图像属于第4天的数据集。需要注意的是，尽管个体间基因型相同，但由于个体差异，形态学年龄与生理学年龄之间并不完全一致。本数据集的来源为遗传学实验室/国家老年研究所/美国国家卫生研究院。
