Plant Physiology 52:298-300 (1973) © 1973 American Society of Plant Biologists Increased Electron Density of Tonoplast Membranes in Washed Corn Root Tissue 1Department of Botany, University of Illinois, Urbana Illinois 61801, C. F. Kettering Research Laboratory, Yellow Springs, Ohio 45387
Washing corn (Zea mays L.) root segments for 4 hours results in increased tonoplast electron density in fixed and stained tissue. It suggested that previously reported increases in solute absorption rate with root tissue washing may lie with changes in the properties of the tonoplast.
