Mushroom, light micrograph
Mushroom. Light micrograph (LM) of a section through a mushroom, Agaricus sp. (formerly Psalliota sp.), showing its stalk (orange) and gills (long white projections). The margins of the gills (black) constitute the hymenial layer, or hymenium, which produces the spore-bearing structures known as basidia. Many spores (basidiospores) lie at the surface of this layer or between the gills (grey)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a mushroom, specifically an Agaricus sp. (formerly Psalliota sp. ). The image, captured using a light microscope, reveals the mesmerizing details of this fungal organism's structure and nature. The vibrant orange stalk stands out against the contrasting background, drawing our attention to the delicate gills that extend like long white projections. These gills play a crucial role in the mushroom's reproductive process. The black margins of these gills form what is known as the hymenial layer or hymenium - responsible for producing basidia, which are structures that bear spores. Upon closer inspection, we can observe numerous basidiospores scattered across the surface of this layer and nestled between the gills in shades of grey. These tiny spores hold immense significance for fungi as they aid in their dispersal and propagation. Through this light micrograph, we gain insight into not only the biological makeup but also the histological intricacies of mushrooms. It serves as a testament to both their elegance and complexity within the realm of mycology. This stunning photograph from Science Photo Library captures not just an ordinary mushroom but rather unveils its hidden wonders under microscopic examination.
