Summary
Cold reduces biological activities. Well adapted plants withstand winter temperatures, and these temperatures are often necessary for the development of species from temperate climates (germination, bud growth, flowering). The effect of winter temperature can be used in horticulture. The various actions of low nonfreezing temperatures are presented, as well as the general effects, their beneficial actions, and their noxious consequences (chilling injuries).
