Salt Concentration and Reversibility of Ice-Formation as Related to the Hardiness of Winter Wheat

Abstract: Although the conditions of ice-formation in the tissues of plants have been the subject of numerous investigations, in the literature there appears to be no description of detailed quantitative experiments regarding the reversibility of the process of ice-formation. In several papers the reversibility or irreversibility of the process is implied. Thus, showed that the freezing point of tissue was lower on the first freeze than on refreezing, which suggests irreversibility; NEWTON and GORTNER (15) specifica… Show more

“…The major fluctuations in percent dry matter were common to both varieties within each planting and occurred during the same time intervals. This may indicate the physiological hardening of both varieties in response to environmental conditions (6).…”

“…The number of roots growing from the crown region, the number of leaves, and the number of tillers developed were considered as direct evidence for growth at the crown level. Approximate leaf blade area (I) and percent dry matter were correlated with the other data with reference to over-all metabolic activity (6,10).…”

“…[6,7] and chemical changes (protein denaturation, losses of vitamins and amino acids and magnesium removal of chlorophyll etc. [8,9,10] occur during freezing of vegetables, and reversibility of these changes is of great importance for quality maintaining of frozen products [11]. Reversibility of freezing process depends on the number and size of ice crystals formed during freezing.…”
