Rosebay pollination, SEM

Rosebay pollination. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the pistil (orange) and stamens (yellow) of a rosebay (Nerium oleander) flower. Numerous pollen grains (round) can be seen on the ripened, split, stamens (one seen from bottom left corner to centre left and lower centre). The stamen is the male reproductive organ and pollen grains contain the male gametes (sex cells) of a flowering plant. When they land on the pistil, the male gametes travel to the ovaries where they fertilise the female gamete (ovule). Rosebay is a poisonous evergreen shrub that is native to waterside habitats of the Mediterranean. Magnification: x100 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate process of rosebay pollination. In this coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we are granted a close-up view of the pistil and stamens of a beautiful rosebay flower, known scientifically as Nerium oleander. The vibrant orange pistil stands out against the backdrop of yellow stamens, which have ripened and split open to reveal numerous pollen grains. The stamen serves as the male reproductive organ in flowering plants, while each pollen grain contains the essential male gametes or sex cells. As depicted in this image, these tiny grains can be seen scattered across the exposed surface of the stamens. When they land on the pistil, these male gametes embark on an incredible journey towards fertilizing the female gamete or ovule within. It is fascinating to witness nature's delicate dance unfold through this SEM image. The rosebay flower's poisonous evergreen shrub is native to waterside habitats in Mediterranean regions. With a magnification level of x100 at 6x7cm size, this photograph allows us to appreciate every detail and understand better how reproduction occurs in plants. This remarkable visual representation captures not only scientific knowledge but also reveals nature's beauty and complexity.
