    Using artificial electron donors and acceptors, it is shown here that the major HCO3- effect in the Hill reaction is after the "primary" electron acceptor (Q) of Photosystem II and before the site of action of 2,5-dibromo-3-methyl-6-isopropyl-p-benzoquinone (at the plastoquinone pool). Chloroplasts in the presence of both 3-(3',4'-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea, which blocks electron flow from the reduced primary acdeptor Q- to the plastoquinone pool, and silicomolybdate, which accepts electrons from Q-, show no significant bicarbonate stimulation of electron flow. However, a 6-7 fold stimulation is clearly observed when oxidized diaminodurene, as an electron acceptor, and dibromothymoquinone, as an inhibitor of electron flow beyond the plastoquinone pool, are used. In the same chloroplast preparation no measurable effect of bicarbonate is observed in a Photosystem I reaction as monitored by electron flow from reduced diaminodurene to methyl viologen in the presence of 3- (3',4'-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea. The insensitivity of the bicarbonate effect to uncouplers of photophosphorylation and the dependence of this effect on the presence of a weak acid anion and on external pH are also reported.
