Discs of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tuber tissue were immersed in buffered (pH 4.0 to 8.0) solutions of 4-amino-3,5,6-trichloropicolinic acid (picloram) (5 × 10−4M to 5 × 10−3M) for 1 to 36 hr. Uptake of picloram during incubation, and leakage after return of the discs to untreated buffer, were determined by gas chromatographic analysis of extracts of the tissue and ambient buffer. Picloram absorption increased with concentration and with time up to 24 hr. Maximum uptake occurred at pH 4.0 and very little picloram was absorbed at pH 7.0 and 8.0. Both absorption and leakage were temperature dependent. The rate and extent of leakage was greatest at the highest concentration. Typically, more than 90% of the picloram absorbed from 5 × 10−3M was lost to fresh buffer within 12 hr.

Host–parasite interfaces in potato tubers (Solanum tuberosum) of a resistant (Eba) and a susceptible (Bintje) cultivar inoculated with Phytophthora infestans were studied with transmission electron microscopy. In the resistant host the fungal haustoria are typically small and surrounded by an electron-dense extrahaustorial matrix and electron-transparent wall appositions, normally in form of complete encasements. Wall appositions are generally lacking in the susceptible host or occasionally are found as a collar at the base of the rather large haustorium, which is surround by a well developed extrahaustorial matrix. Since wall appositions probably contain largely a callose-like material, potential roles of fungal glucanases in this host–parasite system are discussed.
