#29 Micro, 2nd Place – “Pollen Tubes Growing Through the Pistil of Arabidopsis Thaliana” by Jan Martinek
‘In this fluorescence microphotograph, you can see yellow pollen tubes growing through the blue pistil of Arabidopsis thaliana (Thale cress) to fertilise the eggs. This sample was chemically cleared, so the plant tissues become partially transparent, and the pollen tubes growing inside the pistil can be seen.’
