Mould sporangia
Mould sporangia. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the sporangia (orange) of an unidentified mould fungus. The sporangia are the organs in which the asexual spores are produced. This is a food-spoilage organism. Magnification: x940 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of mould sporangia, captured through a coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). The vibrant orange sporangia belong to an unidentified mould fungus and serve as the organs responsible for producing asexual spores. This particular organism is known for causing food spoilage. Under magnification of x940 at a 6x7cm size, this image reveals the fascinating world of fungi in stunning detail. Each sporangium appears like a tiny vessel, brimming with potential life. The SEM technique allows us to appreciate the delicate structures and textures that make up these fungal organisms. Moulds are ubiquitous in nature and play crucial roles in decomposition processes. However, they can also pose health risks when present in our living environments or contaminate our food supplies. Understanding their morphology and life cycle is essential for effective management strategies. As we delve into the realm of mycology, this photograph serves as a reminder of both the aesthetic allure and scientific significance found within even seemingly mundane subjects. It invites us to explore further into the hidden wonders that exist all around us - reminding us that there is always more than meets the eye in nature's intricate tapestry.
