Photo Prints from Science Photo Library
Plant trichome, fluorescent micrograph
Plant trichome. Confocal laser scanning micrograph of a trichome (leaf hair) on a Arabidopsis thaliana plant. Actin filaments in the trichome are green. Actin forms part of the cytoskeleton, which maintains the cells shape, allows some cellular mobility and is involved in intracellular transport. Trichomes are outgrowths of a plants epidermis, and their function and shape can vary, from reducing water loss to protecting against predators. Chloroplasts in the leaf surface are also green

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a plant trichome, captured through a fluorescent micrograph. The image features a leaf hair from an Arabidopsis thaliana plant, with its actin filaments vividly displayed in green. Actin is an essential component of the cytoskeleton, which not only maintains cell shape but also enables cellular movement and facilitates intracellular transport. Trichomes are fascinating outgrowths found on a plant's epidermis, exhibiting diverse functions and shapes. They can serve as protective barriers against predators or reduce water loss by creating a shield-like structure. In this particular image, the trichome stands out against the black background, emphasizing its significance in botanical biology. Additionally, chloroplasts within the leaf surface are visible as green specks. These organelles play a crucial role in photosynthesis by converting sunlight into energy for plants. Photographer Heiti Paves skillfully captures this microscopic world using confocal laser scanning microscopy techniques. The resulting photograph offers viewers an awe-inspiring glimpse into the hidden wonders of nature and highlights the intersection between art and science.
