Josiah Johnston, Cathy Wolkow (2010) CIL:2662, 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 8 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终端球状突起老化旨在基于咽终端球（摄食器官的一部分）的图像，推断出秀丽隐杆线虫的年龄。秀丽隐杆线虫的图像在不同时间年龄下被采集。该图像属于第8天的数据集。值得注意的是，尽管个体在遗传上具有同源性，但由于个体间的差异性，形态学年龄与时间年龄并不完全一致。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。
