Sacred lotus anther, SEM
Sacred lotus anther. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the anther (male pollen- producing part) of a sacred lotus flower (Nelumbo nucifera). The anther opens when the pollen is mature. The pollen contains the male gametes (sex cells). The flowers of the sacred lotus can regulate their own temperature (thermoregulate). Only two other plant species are known to thermoregulate.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a sacred lotus anther, captured through a coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). The anther, which is the male pollen-producing part of the flower, is depicted in stunning detail. As the pollen reaches maturity, the anther opens up to release it into the world. Within this delicate powder lies the male gametes or sex cells. What makes this particular species even more fascinating is its ability to thermoregulate. Just like humans and other warm-blooded creatures, sacred lotus flowers can regulate their own temperature. This unique characteristic sets them apart from almost all other plant species on Earth; only two others are known to possess such a remarkable trait. The SEM image allows us to explore every minute aspect of this reproductive wonder. From the filaments that support and connect each anther to the vibrant colours of individual pollen grains, we gain insight into nature's incredible design. Nelumbo nucifera, commonly referred to as sacred lotus or East Indian lotus, holds immense cultural significance across various regions. Its tripunctate appearance adds further allure to its already mesmerizing presence. Through this photograph by Science Photo Library, we are reminded once again of nature's boundless wonders and how much there still remains for us to discover about our botanical counterparts.
