CIL:1638

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.

本数据集为秀丽隐杆线虫（C. elegans）咽端球衰老数据集，旨在基于线虫咽端球（进食器官的组成部分）的图像推断线虫的年龄。该数据集的秀丽隐杆线虫图像采集于不同实龄阶段，此图像属于第0天数据集子集。需注意，即便受试个体为遗传同源的线虫，由于个体间存在表型异质性，其形态年龄与实龄并不能完全关联。本数据集的来源为美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）遗传学实验室/美国国家衰老研究所（NIA）。
