Jigsaw Puzzle : Iris root, light micrograph
Jigsaw Puzzles From Science Photo Library
Iris root, light micrograph
Iris root. Light micrograph of a section through the root of an Iris plant (Iris germanica) showing a vascular cylinder. The cylinder is comprised of a central cluster of parenchyma cells (red) surrounded by vascular bundles (red and blue) and the endodermis (red ring). The largest vessels seen here are metaxylem, part of the xylem tissue in the vascular bundles. Xylem transports water and mineral nutrients from the roots throughout the plant, while the phloem (dark blue), the other component of the bundles, transports carbohydrates and plant hormones. Magnification: x100 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of an Iris root when viewed under a light microscope. The image reveals a transverse section through the root of an Iris germanica plant, providing a glimpse into its anatomical structure. At the center of the vascular cylinder lies a cluster of vibrant red parenchyma cells, surrounded by both red and blue vascular bundles. Encircling these bundles is a striking red ring known as the endodermis. The largest vessels visible in this micrograph are metaxylem, which form part of the xylem tissue within the vascular bundles. Xylem plays a crucial role in transporting water and essential mineral nutrients from the roots throughout the entire plant. On the other hand, phloem, depicted here in dark blue hues, serves as another component within these bundles responsible for transporting carbohydrates and vital plant hormones. With a magnification level of 100 times when printed at 10 centimeters wide, this image offers viewers an up-close look at nature's remarkable biological transportation system found within plants. It highlights how different tissues and cells work together to ensure efficient nutrient distribution and overall growth. This mesmerizing photograph not only celebrates botanical wonders but also exemplifies how science can capture moments that showcase both artistry and scientific discovery.
