Metal Prints from Science Photo Library
Lily bud pistil and anthers, LM
Lily bud. Light micrograph of a cross-section through an immature lily bud (Lilium sp.), showing the male and female reproductive organs of the flower. The pistil (centre) is made up of three fused leaves, the edges of which curl inwards and bear the placentas (dark red), which in turn house the ovules and their ova (female sex cells, not seen). Surrounding the pistil are six male anthers, each of which have four pollen sacs filled with developing pollen grains, or male sex cells (pink spots). Magnification: x100 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a lily bud in stunning detail. Through the lens of a light microscope, we are granted a glimpse into the hidden world of this unopened flower. At the heart of the image lies the pistil, composed of three fused leaves that gracefully curl inward. These delicate edges bear dark red placentas, which serve as protective homes for the ovules and their ova - the unseen female sex cells responsible for reproduction. Surrounding this central pistil are six male anthers, each adorned with four pollen sacs bursting with developing pollen grains. These pink spots represent the male sex cells eagerly awaiting their chance to fertilize and perpetuate life. The cross-section view allows us to appreciate not only the external beauty but also reveals internal structures crucial to plant anatomy. This slice through nature's masterpiece provides insight into how plants reproduce and thrive. With a magnification level of x100 when printed at 10 centimeters wide, every minute detail is brought to life in this light micrograph. The scientific precision captured by Science Photo Library invites us to marvel at both biology's complexity and its inherent elegance within this lily bud's reproductive system.
