Lineage Tracking and Asymmetric Inheritance Patterns of the Diatom Seminavis robusta [Video and tracking/lineage data]

This repository belongs to the observation experiments for tracking lineages of Seminavis robusta. The connected work reconstructed the lineages and obtained individuals' timing of division and motility. Cells were entrained for 5 days prior under white light with 25 µmol phot / s in a 12:12 hour rhythm. The images were recorded with a modified Leica microscope (DMIL) and 770 nm light source and a band pass filter. Entrainment continued for the time of recording.
Each experiment yields two files: a video and the extracted tracking/lineage data as CSV. The CSV data was manually corrected to fix errors introduced during automated processing. File names include the starting date of the experiment, the observed species, and (for CSV files) the last frame (chronologically) covered by the corrected dataset.
Use: The data is the (separated) output of the Diatom Tracker program (part of the connected work). To open it directly, the initial dialogues need to be skipped and the files selected in the final file selection dialogue.

The recording of data started after the beginning of the dark phase. The offsets for the respective data sets are:
20240121_... +13 frames / 130 s
20240217_... +384 frames / 3840 s
