Rust fungus on a bellflower leaf, SEM C019 / 0238
Rust fungus. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a rust fungus (order Pucciniales) on a bellflower (Campanula sp.) plant. Rust fungi are parasitic on both wild and cultivated plants, often causing severe disease.It is most commonly seen as coloured powder, composed of tiny aeciospores (brown). Magnification: x80 when printed at 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate world of nature's battles, as a rust fungus takes hold on a delicate bellflower leaf. The coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) reveals the stunning details of this parasitic organism from the order Pucciniales, which inflicts damage and severe disease upon both wild and cultivated plants. The image captures the essence of biology in action, with the rust fungus appearing as a vibrant powder composed of tiny brown aeciospores. With a magnification of x80 when printed at 10 centimetres wide, every minute detail is brought to life through the lens of a scanning electron microscope. As we delve into this microscopic realm, we witness how pathogens like this fungal parasite can disrupt the harmonious existence within plant ecosystems. This mesmerizing photograph serves as an important reminder that even in seemingly tranquil environments such as flora and botany, unseen battles are constantly being fought for survival. Photographer Steve Gschmeissner masterfully captures not only the beauty but also the scientific significance behind this image. It offers us an opportunity to explore microbiology and gain insights into plant diseases while appreciating nature's resilience amidst these challenges.
