African mahogany stem, light micrograph
African mahogany stem. Polarised light micrograph of a section through the stem of an African mahogany (Khaya sp.) tree. The multicoloured cells are fibres, and fibre tracheids, which carry water. The horizontal files are medullary rays, which carry water, minerals and food to the outer and inner tissues. There are also sparse xylem vessels (dark brown). Magnification: x32, when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of an African mahogany stem, revealing its hidden wonders under a light microscope. The vibrant colors displayed in this polarised light micrograph highlight the various cells and structures that make up this magnificent tree. The multicolored cells visible throughout the image are fibres and fibre tracheids, responsible for transporting water within the plant. These vital conduits ensure that moisture reaches every part of the stem, sustaining its growth and vitality. Additionally, we can observe horizontal files known as medullary rays, which play a crucial role in carrying water, minerals, and nutrients to both inner and outer tissues. Amidst these fascinating features lie sparse xylem vessels depicted in dark brown hues. These vessels serve as essential pathways for water transport within plants, contributing to their overall survival. With a magnification of x32 when printed at 10 centimeters wide, this photograph allows us to delve into the microscopic world of botany. It provides an extraordinary glimpse into the structural complexity present within dicotyledonous trees like African mahogany (Khaya sp. ), showcasing how nature's meticulous design ensures their resilience and functionality. This stunning visual representation is not only a testament to nature's artistry but also serves as a valuable resource for those studying cell biology or exploring botanical wonders through microscopy.
