A lineage-resolved molecular atlas of C. elegans embryogenesis at single cell resolution
We sequence the transcriptomes of 86,024 single cells from C. elegans embryos, spanning from gastrulation to the beginning of cuticle synthesis. We identify the lineage (from the invariant C. elegans cell lineage) and approximate developmental age of each cell in the single cell data. Using these annotations, we investigate the competing influences of cell lineage and cell fate on gene expression.

Deep data QC
metadata only · no data-level QC for this typeStandardized, field-standard QC computed by touching the data — every metric states how it was obtained
No quantitative QC rubric exists for this data type yet, so it is deliberately left unscored — this is an honest "not applicable", not a poor rating.
measured = computed from the data · extrapolated/reported = derived or from the repository · dq-1.0 · provisional — verify independently
