Josiah Johnston, Cathy Wolkow (2011) CIL:1651, 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 终端球部老化之目标，在于依据咽部终端球部（摄食器官的一部分）的图像，推断线虫的年龄。C. elegans 的图像是在不同的生理年龄下拍摄的。该图像属于第0天的数据集。请注意，尽管个体在遗传上相同，但由于个体间的变异性，形态学和生理学年龄并不完全一致。本数据集的来源为美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）国家老年研究所（NIA）遗传学实验室。
