Poster Print : Lily pollen, SEM
Poster Prints from Science Photo Library
Lily pollen, SEM
Pollen grains. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of pollen grains from a lily (Lilium sp.) plant. The outer wall (exine) of the pollen is highly sculpted, which may assist in wind, water or insect dispersal. The pores in the exine are involved in regulating the water content of each grain and in pollen germination. Each pollen grain contains one of the plants male gametes. These fertilise the eggs, initiating the formation of seeds. Magnification: x180 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of lily pollen grains under a scanning electron microscope. The vibrant colors and detailed sculpting of the outer wall (exine) are truly mesmerizing. These unique features play a crucial role in the dispersal of pollen through various means such as wind, water, or insects. The exine's pores not only regulate the water content within each grain but also aid in pollen germination. Each individual pollen grain contains one of the plant's male gametes, which is responsible for fertilizing eggs and initiating seed formation. With a magnification level of x180 at 6x7cm size, this image allows us to appreciate the complexity and importance of reproductive processes in plants. It serves as a reminder that nature's design extends far beyond what meets our eyes on a daily basis. Whether used for scientific research or simply admired for its aesthetic appeal, this photograph captures both the scientific significance and artistic allure found within nature. It invites viewers to delve into the fascinating world of botany while marveling at the intricacies that enable life to flourish.
