EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a stunning scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of dry rot in plywood. The intricate details captured by the SEM reveal the fascinating world of wood decay caused by the fungus Serpula lacrymans, commonly known as dry rot. The image transports us into the microscopic realm, where we witness an intricate network of hyphae - thread-like structures that form the vegetative part of fungi. These hyphae intertwine and spread throughout the plywood, breaking down its cellulose and lignin components, ultimately leading to structural damage. The contrasting textures and colors within this SEM highlight both the delicate nature of wood fibers and the destructive power of fungal growth. The filaments appear like ethereal tendrils delicately exploring their surroundings while simultaneously causing significant harm to their host material. This mesmerizing photograph serves as a reminder of nature's ability to adapt and thrive even in unexpected places. It also underscores the importance of understanding fungal behavior for industries relying on wooden materials such as construction or furniture manufacturing. Science Photo Library continues to provide invaluable insights into our natural world through visually striking images like this one. By capturing moments that are often hidden from plain sight, they inspire curiosity and promote scientific exploration across various fields including mycology –the study of fungi– which plays a crucial role in preserving our environment and ensuring sustainable practices for future generations.
