Evening primrose pollen, SEM
Evening primrose pollen. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of evening primrose (Oenothera biennis) pollen grains. Pollen grains are the male gametes (sex cells) of a plant. These pollen grains exude a sticky thread known as viscin, which sticks to pollinating insects aiding the spread of the grains

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of evening primrose pollen grains. Under the scanning electron microscope, these male gametes reveal a mesmerizing array of colors and patterns. Each grain is adorned with a sticky thread called viscin, which plays a crucial role in their reproductive journey. In nature's dance of reproduction, these pollen grains rely on pollinating insects to aid their spread. As an insect brushes against the flower's stamen, the viscin attaches itself to its body, ensuring that it will be carried away to another flower for fertilization. This symbiotic relationship between plant and insect is essential for the survival and diversity of both species. The false-colored image adds an artistic touch to this scientific marvel, allowing us to appreciate the hidden wonders within our natural world. It serves as a reminder that even at microscopic levels, life thrives with complexity and purpose. Through this photograph by Science Photo Library, we are granted a glimpse into the remarkable intricacies of botanical biology. The evening primrose pollen grains stand as a testament to nature's ingenuity and its ability to create stunning works of art in even the tiniest forms.
