Summary

A study of the hardening ability of 12 winter wheat, 8 winter rye and 5 winter barley varieties was carried out using the electric conductivity method. Samples were frozen. After thawing, calcium and potassium were studied in effusates, and showed a correlation with hardiness. The results of this study indicate that the conductivity method can be used in estimating the level of winter hardiness of winter wheat, winter rye and winter barley varieties.
