This print titled "Apple tree fungus" showcases the intricate beauty of nature's microscopic world. In this coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we witness a fascinating botanical phenomenon occurring on the surface of an apple tree leaf. The image captures fungal spores bursting through a lesion, causing damage to the leaf. The vibrant colours and sharp details in this SEM highlight the complexity of biological structures involved in this infection. The apple tree fungus, scientifically known as Malus domestica, demonstrates its ability to infect and thrive within its host plant. This mesmerizing display offers insights into the field of mycology, where scientists study fungi and their impact on plants. Through this image, we gain a deeper appreciation for the delicate balance between organisms in our natural environment. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly insignificant elements like fungi play crucial roles in ecosystems. AM Images/Science Photo Library has masterfully captured both scientific precision and artistic allure with this photograph.
