[The salt-glands of Limonium vulgare : II. The localisation of chloride].

Using a combination of microautoradiographic detection of chloride and an electronmicroscopic localisation of silver precipitation an attempt was made to elaborate the intracellular distribution of chloride and the pathway of this ion in the leaf. The main results were as follows: 1. It was shown that chloride occurs in the chloroplasts and probably also in the nuclei. 2. There are indications for an apoplastic and a symplastic transport of the chloride. 3. The findings do not suggest a rise of the chloride concentration in the cytoplasm between the parenchyma and the gland cells.
