Poster Prints from Science Photo Library
Root section, SEM
Root section. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a section through a root of a woody dicotyledon plant. This root consists of secondary xylem tissue (yellow, centre), secondary phloem tissue (brown, surrounding the xylem) and an outer cork (beige). The xylem contains many vessels that transport water and mineral nutrients from the roots throughout the plant. The phloem transports carbohydrates and plant hormones around the plant. The cells of the cork are reinforced with lignin, which helps to maintain structural support. Magnification: x80 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed section of a root from a woody dicotyledon plant, beautifully captured using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The image reveals the intricate cellular structure and composition of this vital part of the plant. In the center, we can observe the secondary xylem tissue depicted in vibrant yellow. These tissues contain numerous vessels responsible for transporting water and essential mineral nutrients throughout the entire plant. Surrounding the xylem is the secondary phloem tissue, represented by an earthy brown color. This crucial component transports carbohydrates and plant hormones to various parts of the plant. The outermost layer, known as cork, is shown in a delicate beige shade. Cork cells are fortified with lignin, providing structural support to maintain stability within the root system. With a magnification level of 80 times its actual size when printed at 10 centimeters wide, this SEM image offers us an up-close look at nature's incredible microscopic wonders. This photograph not only highlights scientific knowledge about roots but also emphasizes their importance in supporting plants' growth and survival. It serves as a testament to both botanical beauty and biological complexity found within our natural world.
