It is becoming increasingly clear that in green plant cells H+ions play an important role both in photoinduced changes of the membrane potential and in photophosphorylation. Transients of the membrane potential after light-dark (L-D) and dark-light (D-L) changes are thought to be dependent on electron flow and ion movements (possibly H+) across the chloroplast thylakoid membranes (Lüttge and Pallaghy, 1969). Kitasato (1968) and Spanswick (1972) have considered electrogenic H+pumps inNitella. There is evidence with broken chloroplasts (HIND and Jagendorf, 1965) for involvement of H+in photophosphorylation in accordance with the chemi-osmotic hypothesis of Mitchell (1966). However, knowledge of the extent of light-induced changes in H+concentration in intact chloroplasts and the possible effects of these changes on the membrane potential is meagre. Nor is there any direct experimental evidence linking changes in cytoplasmic or vacuolar pH to photoinduced changes in the membrane potential. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to make measurements with microelectrodes of the pH and electrical potential of chloroplastsin situand, as well, of the cytoplasm and vacuole.
