Abstract
The epidermal bladders of several Atriplex species contain high concentrations of ions. Chloride was secreted from the solution or the lamina to the bladders, against a concentration gradient. Transfer of 36CI to the bladders was strongly light stimulated, but uptake to the lamina was much less sensitive.
