Abscission layer, light micrograph
Abscission layer. Light micrograph of a longitudinal section through a stem from the flame nettle (Solenostemon scutellarioides), showing a developing abscission layer (purple, left). At this point a meristem of cork cambium (phellogen, light purple line) has formed from small cells, which will form a cork layer (phellem). When the leaf falls off this leaf scar of cork prevents the ingress of pathogens, loss of water and insulates the stem against fire damage. Magnification: x45 when printed at 10 centimetres wide.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of an abscission layer, captured through a light micrograph. The image depicts a longitudinal section of a stem from the flame nettle (Solenostemon scutellarioides), revealing the development of this crucial layer responsible for leaf detachment. The abscission layer, highlighted in striking purple on the left side, is accompanied by a meristem of cork cambium or phellogen. These small cells will eventually form a protective cork layer known as phellem. When leaves fall off, this leaf scar formed by cork acts as a barrier against harmful pathogens and prevents water loss while also providing insulation against fire damage. At 45 times magnification when printed at 10 centimeters wide, every detail becomes apparent - from the cellular structure to the anatomical composition. This mesmerizing glimpse into plant biology offers insight into how plants adapt and protect themselves during seasonal changes. With its focus on nature's intricate mechanisms and botanical wonders, this print serves as both an educational tool for botany enthusiasts and an artistic representation of biological structures. It highlights not only the complexity but also the elegance found within flora's internal workings. Captured by Science Photo Library, renowned for their commitment to scientific accuracy and visual excellence, this image invites viewers to appreciate nature's ingenuity while delving into the fascinating world of plant anatomy.
