Abstract
For cold tolerant herbaceous plants it has been documented that the capacity to exhibit maximum low temperature tolerance requires prolonged exposure of seedlings to low, non-freezing temperatures (0C–5C)(1,2). Pre-exposure to a low temperature regime induces a cold hardened state which imparts a particular level of freezing resistance to the plant (Fig. 1).
