Summary

IN ORDER TO FIND OUT THE TEMPERATURE ON WHICH DORMANCY CEASES THE MOST QUICKLY A SERIES OF EXPERIMENTS WERE SET UP. THE GOLDSTAUB VARIETY WAS USED. IT WAS FOUND THAT THE MOST SATISFACTORY STORAGE WAS FOR 180 DAYS AT 279 K (6 DEG C) (82% SPROUTING). IN THE CASE OF VARYING STORAGE TEMPERATURE THE SATISFACTORY WAY WAS WHEN HIGH TEMPERATURE WAS FOLLOWED BY LOW. THE SECOND HALF OF THE STORAGE PERIOD IS DECISIVE. VARYING STORAGE TEMPERATURE DID NOT GIVE BETTER RESULTS THAN THE PERMANENT 279 K.(HUNG. AGRIC. REV., HU., 31, N. 2, 1982, 10, 257.
