Josiah Johnston, Cathy Wolkow (2011) CIL:1908, 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终末球部老化之旨在依据咽部终末球（摄食器官的一部分）的图像推断秀丽隐杆线虫的年龄。选取C. elegans在不同时间点的图像以构建本数据集。请注意，尽管个体间遗传学上相同，但由于个体差异，形态学年龄与实际年龄并不完全一致。数据集来源于美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）国家衰老研究所（NIA）遗传学实验室。
