Fine Art Prints From Science Photo Library
Rose stamens showing pollen sacs
Rose stamens. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of stamens in a Garden Rose flower, Rosa sp. Stamens are the male reproductive organs of the flower. They consist of a stalk-like filament (green) and a swollen anther (yellow). The anther is made up of pollen sacs from which tiny pollen grains (the male reproductive spores) are seen emerging through a longitudinal slit (at left). The pollen grains in the rose plant are picked up by insect pollinators and spread to the female stigmas. Pollen grains contain the male gametes that fertilize the female ovule to form a seed. Many stamens are to be found in each rose flower. Magnification: x20 at 6x7cm size. Magnification: x48 at 12x16cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of rose stamens, revealing their delicate pollen sacs. In this colored scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we are granted a close-up view of the male reproductive organs of a Garden Rose flower, Rosa sp. Each stamen consists of a slender filament in vibrant green and a swollen anther in striking yellow. The anther is composed of numerous pollen sacs, which house minuscule pollen grains - the male reproductive spores. Through a longitudinal slit on the left side, these grains can be observed emerging gracefully. The rose plant relies on insect pollinators to carry its precious cargo; they pick up these pollen grains and transfer them to female stigmas for fertilization. Pollen grains contain essential male gametes that fuse with female ovules to initiate seed formation. A single rose flower boasts multiple stamens, contributing to its enchanting allure and ensuring ample opportunities for successful reproduction. With magnifications reaching x20 at 6x7cm size and x48 at 12x16cm size, this image captures even the tiniest details within each stamen's structure. It serves as a testament to nature's remarkable intricacy and reminds us of the vital role played by flowers' reproductive mechanisms in sustaining life on our planet.
