Erwinia bacteria, SEM

Erwinia bacteria. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of Erwinia carotovora bacteria. This gram-negative flagellated bacterium causes soft rot of plant crops such as potato, cabbage and carrot. It is found worldwide, and can survive in soil and surface water when not infecting the roots of plants. Magnification: x10, 570 when printed 10cm high

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate world of Erwinia bacteria, as captured through a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The vibrant colors bring to life these gram-negative flagellated microorganisms responsible for causing soft rot in plant crops like potato, cabbage, and carrot. With a magnification of x10,570 when printed at 10cm high, this image allows us to appreciate the minute details of these pathogens. Erwinia carotovora is a globally distributed bacterium that can survive in soil and surface water even when not infecting plant roots. Its ability to cause crop damage makes it an important subject in the field of plant pathology. This SEM photograph provides valuable insights into its biology and structure. The beauty lies in the multiple layers visible within this image – from the flora surrounding the bacteria to their own biological features. It serves as a reminder of how interconnected our natural world is and highlights the importance of understanding microbial organisms that can have disease-causing potential. Science Photo Library has once again captured an extraordinary moment in microbiology with this stunning print. It invites us to delve deeper into the fascinating realm of bacteria while reminding us of their significant impact on agriculture and ecosystems alike.
