Evaluation of the cold tolerance of maize seedlings (Zea mays L.) with a modified joint scaling test
2002
Marton L., Cs. | Kuti, Cs.
The inheritance of chilling tolerance in maize seedlings was studied in a temperature gradient chamber on a systematic genetic series developed using the inbred lines CM 174 and Mo17 as the parents. The leaf areas of the six genotypes were evaluated after 26 days of chilling treatment. This treatment was begun when the plants were in the 2-leaf stage and was carried out simultaneously at 10 different temperatures from 7.0 to 14.2 Celsius grad at intervals of 0.8 Celsius grad.
