Abstract:Late spring frost is the most hazardous abiotic stress affecting the survival of sugar beet seedlings. Therefore, it is very important to identify frost-tolerant cultivars during the early seedling development stage. In the study, the physiological and morphological responses of ten sugar beet cultivars (Ernestina, Isabella, Orthega, Serenada, Kuno, Taurus, Tuna, Mohican, Rodeo, and Smılodon) to frost stress at different growth stages (V1.1, V2.1, and V3.1) were evaluated. Seedlings were exposed to − 3 °C for … Show more
