Description

A video of Arabidopsis thaliana showing a lateral root growing out of the primary root. Arabidopsis thaliana is widely used as a model organism in plant biology. This movie is created from image stacks recorded every 15 minutes over a period of 75 hours using digital scanned light-sheet microscopy. Second Prize, 2011 Olympus BioScapes Digital Imaging Competition®.
