Cucumber pollen grains, SEM
Cucumber pollen grains. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of pollen grains of the cucumber plant (Cucumis sativus). Pollen grains vary between species in size, shape and surface texture. They are produced in the anthers of the flower and contain the male gametes required for reproduction. Dispersal by the wind or by insects, carries the grains to other plants, resulting in the fertilisation of the female eggs present in the flowers carpel. Magnification: x350 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of cucumber pollen grains. Under the scanning electron microscope (SEM), these vibrant green grains come to life, revealing their unique size, shape, and surface texture. Each grain holds within it the essential male gametes needed for reproduction in the cucumber plant (Cucumis sativus). Pollen grains play a crucial role in plant reproduction by being produced in the anthers of flowers. Once released into the environment, they rely on wind or insects for dispersal to other plants. This process ensures that female eggs present in the flower's carpel are fertilized, leading to successful pollination. The magnification at x350 allows us to appreciate even the tiniest details of these pollen grains when printed at 6x7cm size. The vivid colors and intricate patterns make this image a true testament to nature's remarkable design. This print not only highlights the fascinating world of botany but also serves as a reminder of how vital pollination is for sustaining plant life. It captures a moment frozen in time, inviting viewers to marvel at nature's ingenuity and understand its delicate balance.
