Photo Mug : Tomato leaf, light micrograph
Home Decor from Science Photo Library
Tomato leaf, light micrograph
Tomato leaf. Light micrograph of a transverse section through the midrib of a tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum) leaf. The upper and lower epidermis on the surfaces of the leaf are blue. Under the upper epidermis are palisade cells (yellow), which contain chloroplasts, the site of photosynthesis. Within the midrib is a vascular bundle, composed of xylem (red) and phloem (dark blue) cells, which transport water and carbohydrates around the plant respectively. Magnification: x14 when printed at 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a tomato leaf under the lens of a light microscope. The transverse section through the midrib reveals a mesmerizing array of colors and structures that make up this essential part of the plant's anatomy. The upper and lower epidermis, depicted in striking blue hues, protect the leaf's delicate inner workings. Beneath the upper epidermis lies a layer of palisade cells, represented in vibrant yellow tones. These remarkable cells house chloroplasts, which play a crucial role in photosynthesis – nature's own magical process for converting sunlight into energy. As we delve deeper into the leaf's core, we encounter an awe-inspiring vascular bundle composed of xylem (depicted in bold red) and phloem (in deep blue). These specialized cells act as vital transportation systems within plants, facilitating water movement and distributing carbohydrates throughout their structure. With its white background accentuating every detail, this botanical masterpiece offers us an extraordinary glimpse into the hidden wonders of nature. It serves as both an artistic marvel and an educational tool for those fascinated by plant biology. This stunning micrograph print captures not only our imagination but also highlights how science can reveal astonishing beauty even at microscopic levels.
