Flax plant stem, light micrograph
Flax plant stem. Light micrograph of a transverse section through a stem of the flax plant (Linum usitatissimum). The layers from outer to inner (some very thin) are the epidermis (bottom), the parenchyma (pink), the phloem fibres (black/red), phloem (pink), cambium (red), xylem (blue/brown). The pith (partly seen at upper right) is composed of large cells of parenchyma (pink). Magnification: x100 when printed at 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a flax plant stem, as seen under a light microscope. The transverse section reveals the various layers that make up this vital botanical structure. Starting from the outermost layer, we have the epidermis, which forms a protective barrier for the stem. Just beneath it lies the parenchyma, depicted in a delicate shade of pink. Moving further inward, we encounter an array of phloem fibers colored in striking black and red hues. These fibers play a crucial role in transporting nutrients throughout the plant. Adjacent to them is the phloem itself, responsible for carrying sugars produced during photosynthesis. The vibrant red band represents cambium tissue—a region where cell division occurs—ensuring continuous growth and development of the flax plant. Beneath it lies xylem tissue depicted in shades of blue and brown; its primary function is to transport water and minerals from roots to other parts of the plant. Partially visible at upper right is an intriguing glimpse into pith—the central portion composed of large parenchyma cells that provide structural support. This extraordinary image allows us to marvel at nature's complexity on a microscopic level while highlighting key components within this flax stem's internal structure. It serves as a testament to both scientific curiosity and artistic appreciation for botanical wonders found all around us.
