Effect of Floricane Number in `Marion' Trailing Blackberry. I. Primocane Growth and Cold Hardiness

Cold Hardiness of Woody Plants

stresses caused by their freezing and thawing. A key difference between a hardy plant and a non-hardy plant is believed to be where the ice forms in freezing: inside the living cells or outside of them. If ice forms inside of cells, it is almost always fatal to them, and this is probably the principal cause of frost kill in non-hardy plants. Normally hardy tissue may be killed by moderate tempe...

Effect of cold stress on biochemical and physiological characteristics in the number of olive cultivars

This study was conducted to investigate the frost status in the 11 commercial cultivars, three newly introduced cultivars and two genotypes of olives. After the occurrence of frost at the Tarom region of Zanjan province in February 2019, three trees from each cultivar were selected. Frost symptoms were recorded based on observational indices. Gas exchange traits (stomatal conductance, transpira...

Changes in Physicochemical Properties of Wild and Cultivated Blackberry during Postharvest Cold Storage

Background: Blackberry is a seasonal harvested fruit that is also very fragile and perishes quickly. A comparative study was conducted to find out influence of cold storage on physicochemical parameters of wild and cultivated blackberry over a period of 12 days. Methods: The plant materials were composed of the blackberry fruit, including a compound of cultivated blackberry (Rubus spp.), and w...
