✦ Synopsis

Chloride absorption by excised barley roots from dilute solutions is more oligomycin-sensitive than its absorption from more concentrated solutions and than K+ and Na + absorption from dilute as well as concentrated solutions. Oligomycin decreased the ATP content of excised barley roots. The mode of oligomycin interference with ion absorption by plant cells is discussed.
