#Bryophytes are plants that everyone know, but hardly ever consider, they are just there, between the tiles, on the trees and rocks. ✨However, they are absolutely exceptional✨ Direct descendants of the first plants to colonise land from the sea, algae, they appeared around 450 million years ago ⬇️

🪻My name is Lavandin. I’m a spontaneous hybrid. I arise from a natural cross between 2 species of lavender. My parents are the True Lavender (L. angustifolia Mill.) and the Spike Lavender (L. latifolia Medik). They give birth to me where their geographical eras overlap, in South-East France. ☀️⬇️

🪻 #Lavenders emit the VOCs through their calyx, the tube-shaped support of the #flower. 🪻It is covered with the famous trichomes that contain the essential oil. 🪻Over 50% of this essential oil is made up of linalool and linalyl acetate, but it also contains many other substances. #science

🪻Lavenders are small shrubs that grow naturally in dry or arid environments, often at altitude (up to 1800 m). They cover around 40 wild species a few spontaneous hybrids and two species cultivated on a large scale for their essential oils. Read more ⬇️

👃What do you think Pelargonium ‘Concolor Lace’ leaves smell like❓ Orange 🍊 Mint 🌿 Hazelnut 🌰 The answer on the post bellow

Citronellol biosynthesis in pelargonium is a multistep pathway involving progesterone 5β-reductase and/or iridoid synthase-like enzymes, Plant Physiology, Volume 194, Issue 2, February 2024, Pages 1006–1023, L. Martinelli et ac. doi.org/10.1093/plph...

🔎 The secretory glands are responsible for the emission of essential oil in several plants. As you now know from a previous post, in pelargoniums, they are found on the leaves They are formed by small outgrowths called 𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐬.At their end, inside a round cuticle is the fragrant essential oil

As promised - here is the other link. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... A story of #liverworts #bryophytes and their chemistry, bringing new enzymes to #plantscience and the #biochemistry of smaller plants. Thanks to all people involved ;) Part of our work at @lbvpam.bsky.social

Confocal microscopy 🔬 🟢This optical microscope produces very shallow depth-of-field images using reflected light or fluorescence. 🟢We coloured rose petal sections with Nile Red to highlight the drops of essential oil inside the cells. They are called "lipid droplets". The image is beautiful 😍
