Sycamore stem, light micrograph
Sycamore stem. Light micrograph of a vertical section through a sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus) stem node. The red layer at the edge of the stem is a protective layer of cork and parenchyma tissue (phellogen), known as the abscission layer, that forms just prior to the leaves dropping in autumn.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a sycamore stem, captured through a light micrograph. The vertical section reveals the fascinating anatomy of this botanical wonder, specifically focusing on a stem node. At first glance, one cannot help but be drawn to the vibrant red layer encircling the edge of the stem. This layer serves as a protective shield composed of cork and parenchyma tissue known as the abscission layer. As autumn approaches, this abscission layer plays a crucial role in preparing for leaf drop. It forms just prior to this seasonal change, ensuring that when the time comes, leaves can detach effortlessly from their branches. This natural process is essential for trees like sycamores to conserve energy during colder months. The image not only highlights nature's remarkable ability to adapt but also offers an insight into plant biology and anatomy. Through careful examination using a light microscope, scientists can delve deeper into understanding how plants function at a cellular level. With its rich colors and intricate details, this print beautifully captures both artistry and science intertwined within our natural world. Whether you are passionate about botany or simply appreciate nature's wonders, this stunning piece by Science Photo Library is sure to captivate your imagination with its exploration of sycamore stems in all their autumnal glory.
