Josiah Johnston, Cathy Wolkow (2011) CIL:2219, 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 6 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根据咽部终端球（摄食器官的一部分）的图像推断线虫的年龄。C. elegans 的图像在不同的时间年龄下进行拍摄。此图像为第6天的数据集之一。请注意，由于个体之间的可变性，即使个体在遗传上相同，形态学年龄和实际年龄亦不完全相关。数据集的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。
