Fern spores, SEM
Fern spores. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of spores (red) of a fern partly enclosed in a sporangium. The undersides of the leaves of ferns are covered in these spore-containing sacs. Spores are released when the wall of a sporangium dries and splits, catapulting them away from the plant

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate beauty of fern spores. In this coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we are granted a close-up view of these tiny red spores, nestled within a sporangium. The sporangium acts as a protective sac for the spores, found on the undersides of fern leaves. The image offers us a glimpse into the fascinating world of plant reproduction. When the wall of a sporangium dries and splits, it sets off an extraordinary chain reaction. The built-up tension is released, propelling the spores away from their parent plant with incredible force - like miniature catapults in action. Ferns belong to a group of plants known as pteridophytes, which have been thriving on Earth for millions of years. Their ability to produce and disperse vast quantities of spores has contributed to their evolutionary success. As we admire this SEM photograph, we can't help but marvel at nature's ingenuity and complexity. It serves as a reminder that even in seemingly small organisms such as ferns, there is an entire world waiting to be explored under the microscope. This image invites us to appreciate both the beauty and scientific significance behind every detail captured by Science Photo Library – an awe-inspiring testament to our natural world's wonders.
